I'm a private person; I stick to my neighbourhood and eat in my little restaurants.

The size of a studio film lets you see technology in a way that you wouldn't on an independent film, like the gadgets and the angles and all that.

It's all about the director for me; we have to click. It's a trust thing. I'll say I'm ready to let down my walls. I'll cry for you as long as you need. But you're going to have to hug me afterwards.

What's exciting about watching a movie, when it's finished, is you sometimes you don't recognize yourself, and that's when I'm really proud.

You don't always have to look in the distance for what's going on over there, when you actually see what's right in front of you.

On an independent film, you really learn about pace. You have so little time to do things, that you really have to know your scenes.

For a woman, body image is always a palpable thing. Weirdly, for me, the only time I don't care is when I'm in character.

I'm not someone who doesn't want to see the films, but I like to see them as an end product when the whole nuance of the character is put together.

When I go home to England, my friends all make fun of me for sounding American.

That's the great thing about the 'Sin City' movies. Each little slot is incredibly meaningful, and each character has their own moment.

You know, I do projects that I really care about. I hope I'll stand by that until the day I die!

Baba and I lived in the same house, but in different spheres of existence. Kites were the one paper-thin slice of intersection between those spheres.

I push myself to be the best I can be. I don't worry about what other people are doing, and I don't think about things I can't control.

No money, no family, 16 in the middle of Miami.

And yes, again, that was it exactly. A retyper and not a writer. A prodigy and not a genius.

All the great things of life are swiftly done, Creation, death, and love the double gate. However much we dawdle in the sun We have to hurry at the touch of Fate.

And Life is Colour and Warmth and Light and a striving evermore for these; and he is dead, who will not fight; and who dies fighting has increase.

An untrampled scorpion troubles no one.

Unfortunately, too many public school officials believe that cameras are needed to enforce order and discipline.

If a man carefully examine his thoughts he will be surprised to find how much he lives in the future. His well-being is always ahead. Such a creature is probably immortal.

I want to see and taste and experience it all, I am curious by nature. I would actually really love to go to New Zealand.
