I come from an acting family, my father was an actor, and I had to fight my way and just create my own identity.

I've always loved the idea of changing myself, wearing costumes and disguises. It takes you back to being a kid, to dressing up.

People pretend to be nice, people pretend to be smooth, and polite and everything, but this is only an appearance, because the way we're built as human beings is only in paradox and contradictions.

Perfection is not just about control, it is also about letting go.

Good guys need to be a little dirty otherwise they're just boring.

The only person standing in your way is you.

You can't escape from what you are.

I always had the sense of being in the spotlight, being on stage, being looked at.

I'm more attracted to the bad guys. Why? Because in real life, I don't know any good guys. I know okay guys. I know polite guys. I know people who can control themselves.

I really never felt any tremendous aggravation or separation.

It is ridiculous that I have so many shoes I don't wear. I worry that they're sitting there, being sad.

The by-product is sometimes more valuable than the product.

It's not work that kills [people], it is worry.

Writing is a great love of mine.

Women I know are smart, educated, intelligent, capable of doing anything that anybody else can do.

I always think that I would have become an actor if I hadn't been a soccer player.

When I want to choose to work with someone, you know, I definitely have to do some research on their background and how they were raised as people.
