The work I enjoy is when the camera rolls, and I like the work in the moment.

Any actor who tells you that they have become the people they play, unless they’re clearly diagnosed as a schizophrenic, is bullshitting you.

My favorite meal would have to be good old-fashioned eggs, over easy, with bacon. Many others, but you can't beat that on a Sunday morning, especially with a cup of tea.

You choose your friends by their character and your socks by their color.

I enjoy playing characters where the silence is loud.

I had a guitar when I was 6 or 7, a plastic guitar with the Beatles' faces on it. It would be a collector's item now. It would fetch a hefty sum, I imagine.

My passion and energy get mistaken for anger.

Reality TV to me is the museum of social decay.

We're given a code to live our lives by. We don't always follow it, but it's still there.

I applaud anything that can take a kid away from a PlayStation or a Gameboy. That is a miracle in itself.

I spent thirty-two years in a paper mill in southern Ohio, and before that I worked in a meatpacking plant and a shoe factory.

I miss the grasshoppers much, but suppose it is all for the best. I should become too much attached to a trotting world.

Without writing, what would I have become? Nothing. In China the individual used to be treated as a screw or a small cog in the revolutionary machine. I wanted to be a human being with a voice.

What is Christian in art does not lie in the theme but in the spirit of it, in its wisdom and the understanding of reality it reflects.

If Christ came back he would drive his treacherous servants out of the temple with a whip.

Therefore there is not anything which returns to nothing, but all things return dissolved into their elements.

I am not afraid of the word tension.

Ummm, there is not just one good thing about being a VJ, it is a package deal. It is a fun job and you get paid to party and have a good time and make people have a good time, which is great.
