You can go through life and actually speak your mind and do it in an articulate fashion and with a really intelligent point of view.
The only problem with Mitch [Pileggi, the actor who plays Skinner] is that his bald head means there's nothing to hold onto when he starts to buck.
I've run into certain geniuses of individualism - they are very few and far between - who live their lives completely on their own terms; they are very powerful and have a great amount of happiness. We all should aspire to that.
I enjoy trying to figure out the best way to compliment the picture and not overpower it.
I drive an electric car.
My whole life, Ive wanted things before I was ready. I was always pushing for the next job, the next success. I was so focused on achieving and the path that I was missing some great point about life.

I think patience is a skill and I wish I had it.
I don't like watching people work if they're making art.
