I'm lucky that I got to start acting when I was so young, and people put me in these movies. A lot of people don't get to play these parts because they start a little older.

Most books and movies that are handed to teenagers are filled with stereotypes.

When romance is done well in a movie, its awesome.

I don't want to play high schoolers anymore. I guess I don't feel that way. I just want to play characters who are really good.

I think as long as I have a creative outlet, I'm happy.

I love James Taylor, Jeff Buckley, Elliott Smith and Nine Inch Nails.

Jazz is a constant theme in my life. My father is a jazz pianist, and from an early age I have been surrounded by it.

I would not describe myself as an avid jazz fan and I am not a jazz musician myself. However, that is not to say that jazz does not play a vital and important role in my life.

I think music is my favorite thing to do, but I go through periods where I think differently.

I kind of help solve world peace and world hunger. That's just kind of an average day off for me.

A lot of times people come up to me saying 'oh my god you can see,' and they think they're the first person to think of that joke, but they're probably the 10,000th one to say that joke.

Where it comes from I don't know. Is it a gift? I don't know. But with perseverance you are sure to always end up on the winning side.

We spent a lot of time trend forecasting and collaborating on ways to design a fresh line of fashion-forward, affordable luxury.

There is none who cannot teach somebody something, and there is none so excellent but he is excelled.

True education is limited to those people who would die without knowing, whereas the masses in the institutions are merely going through the motions, for education is a way of living.

The greatest need in the world today is faith in God and courage to do His will.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

At a very early age I started a cartoon scrapbook, actually when I was in high school. And it became, in turn, a scrapbook of my life. And there are about 2,000 volumes.

I love you. Most ardently.

Humans are cowards in the face of happiness. It takes courage to hold on to happiness.

If you want to keep something concealed from your enemy, don't disclose it to your friend.
