I wanted to play incredibly challenging, multifaceted characters. Because we are all a puzzle.

It doesn't matter how old you are, or what you do in your life, you never stop needing your mom.

If being crazy means living life as if it matters, then I don't mind being completely insane.

Because of the person I am I won't be knocked down — ever. They can say I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm whatever, and I'll never stop. I just won't. I've got too much to do. I've too much to be happy about.

Life is short, and it is here to be lived.

The enemy of my enemy may be my friend … of course the friend of my friend is often a jerk.

For God's sake give me the young man who has brains enough to make a fool of himself.

I just like to do different parts.

The test of Christian character should be that a man is a joy-bearing agent to the world.

I was always a little adult. Even as a little kid, I just couldn't understand why I was surrounded by all these kids. I took things very seriously.

Why should it be that just when technology is most encouraging of creativity, the law should be most restrictive?

Ninety-nine percent of the people in the world are fools and the rest of us are in great danger of contagion.
