Material Girls was so different for me, I'd never done a teen movie.

A low budget is uncomfortable.

In choosing any role, I ask the same questions: what kind of part is it? is the role challenging? does the director have a vision? is the story moving? etc.

On a low-budget film, you don't have all the luxuries.

I've been into music for a long time. I started playing drums when I was 8 and piano when I was 10, then bass and guitar when I was 18.

I love seeing people having fun. Everyone over in L.A. is too cool for it. That's the problem.

I also couldn't pass up the opportunity to be in the same movie as Jack Nicholson and Glenn Close.

It's cool to play a sinister bad guy who also has a human side.

Somewhere embedded in every ordinary book are the five or six words for which really all the rest will be written.

Dreaming or awake, we perceive only events that have meaning to us.

Prior to SunRun, I was headed toward a career in venture capital and then realized I wanted to apply my knowledge of finance more directly to helping change the world.

The bows, the polka dots, the color, the playfulness - you don't have to over do it. You just have to be able to style it in the right way.

A stress on the system and I think a painful thing for many young poets who are looking to find a life in poetry that they're not going to be able to find.

What’s the likelihood? That the one girl who makes my heart race is the one girl who wants me in return? That the accident of my attraction coincides with the accident of hers?

I want to write a book which is the history of comedy.

There's always a lot of talk about motivation to race, but nobody really knows what I do or what I think apart from myself, so I don't really care what people think.

Where's my syllabus to guide me through life?

What man is, only his history tells.
