We all have sadness in our life and things that we can draw upon

Twin Peaks was special because it was so groundbreaking. In the early 90s it really changed television a lot. A bunch of weird shows, like Northern Exposure, came on after that.

In a perfect world, I could be doing some bigger films and balance that with some independent films because they seem to be the most challenging and unique

I was a brat. It was crazy, I was very picky. In other words, I didn't take advantage of what was happening

Bleaching my hair for Two Moon Junction... my hair was fried and I looked like an idiot.

I don't think I could ever do a network sitcom because the humor is often based on some trite circumstance. I don't want to be a part of a show where it's mostly about coming up with the jokes.

Even if your work touches one person, that's an amazing gift.

I think there's an anxiety in life where we automatically tend to look to the next thing or we're complaining about the past. Worrying is not going to make it happen or not happen

Now I know why guys like to hug girls. You guys just want to cop a feel. I can't believe that I've fallen for it all these years!

I'm honest. I say what I feel. I try to be tactful, but I can't not say what I feel. I have a really big problem with that.

I loved working on Of Mice and Men. It was a wonderful group of people. John Malkovich is to me one of the best actors around right now-and a lot of fun to work with.

Love is a flower that should never cease to grow. Nurture it, and it will outlive you. Neglect it, and it will wilt away and die.

No sport is less organized than Calvinball.

...no one who has passed through the storm has ever regretted the journey. No one stands here and wishes to go back to the other side.

Faith and doubt go hand in hand, they are complementaries. One who never doubts will never truly believe.

I'm from Florida, so any time I get invited to come to Florida and play a show, I'm definitely always up for that.

"Good" people are those who don't hold in the thoughts, but find proper outlets like writing, painting, music, etc.

My method for picking stocks has never changed. When businesses go from crappy to semicrappy, there's money to be made.

Not by force shall the children learn, but through play

God is a fountain flowing into itself.

The problem with a lot of movies when it comes to race is that they want to be moral, and they want to make the audience feel good about something that a lot of people don't feel good about.
