Is there anything better than making a kid laugh?

I don't know what my version of a relationship or marriage is yet, because the typical model seems a little broken to me.

I like to do weird things in the shower, like drink my coffee, brush my teeth and drink a smoothie. It's good time management.

I don't believe that life is linear. I think of it as circles - concentric circles that connect.

I want to be like water. I want to slip through fingers, but hold up a ship.

Everything's connected, and everything has meaning if you look for it.

There was a weird, innate kind of understanding between me and Christina (Ricci). A psychic told us we were sisters in a past life.

Listen, I've always been very headstrong.

I love things that are old and beautiful and tell a story, even if it's a sad one.

There was a sense of being taken on a journey by the grandmaster of the road trip. You feel this weird angel taking you somewhere. You don't know where, but you trust him.

Because whatever I feel inside, it has a place to go. It just saves me over and over and over again.

I am afraid of the future

In the early days, it was nearly omnipresent, a constant background noise, like the hum of traffic on a busy highway: the sound of a human being in pain.

Lonesome. Lonesome. I know what it means. Here all by my lonesome, dreaming empty dreams. Weary. Weary at the close of day, wondering if tomorrow brings me joy or sorrow.

Economically, it’s more expensive to make movies. I hope digital movies change that.

Wisdom and courage make mutual contributions to greatness.

I have been nominated three times. I have the little pieces of paper to prove it.

If you're strong enough on the inside, you can handle anything that comes at you on the outside.

I tell you what really turns my toes up: love scenes with 68-year-old men and actresses young enough to be their granddaughter.

Wisdom loves the children of men, but she prefers those who come through foolishness to wisdom.

When I have plucked the rose, I cannot give it vital growth again, It needs must wither. I'll smell it on the tree.
