When you hire somebody, you shouldn't have to tell them [a lot of what] to do; you hire them because you like their work and all you've got to do is tweak them a little bit.

I had a love for photography, which of course rolled into cinematography.

I think acting has made me very in tune with human behavior and myself as well.

To book commercials, you do something to get to a callback, and once you get to the callback, you've got three minutes to get the people to want to hang out with you for a day.

Not all pictures but some pictures you're like, "Wow, I wish I could be there" or you feel like you are there. I don't know what it is about cinematography.

I really love Andrew Dominik's movies. When you work with someone whose movies you really love and who you have a lot of admiration for, you turn into putty in their hands.

I just want to keep laying down really great, strong characters, and the more I go unrecognized, the better job I feel I'm doing.

I did theater as a kid, more of an after-school program. But every night I would put on a movie and fall asleep to it.

I've been doing independent films for 10 years, but one out of five didn't see the light of day.

In no way do I want to draw attention to myself.

To have three movies coming out at the same time - I probably will never have that again in my life.

. . . I lay on the bed and lost myself in the stories. I liked that. Books were safer than other people anyway.

The sun stopped shining for me is all. The whole story is: I am sad. I am sad all the time and the sadness is so heavy that I can't get away from it. Not ever.

I am being a minister of light and a destroyer of ignorance and I shall never keep quiet until this horrendous mountain is pulled down in my country, in the church of Christ and in my continent.

Joy blossoms in our hearts not as we try harder and harder to grow, but as we see more clearly the depth of our sin and understand more fully our helplessness.

Yeah, but a hellbender never dies. You ever see a dead one?

Why should we not expect self-designated environmental leaders to practice what they preach?

Men, who achieve much, die as do those who achieve nothing.

What we call God's justice is only man's idea of what he would do if he were God.

A rattlesnake that doesn't bite teaches you nothing.

Fortunately, when we have all our marbles, we can shift our memories very quickly.
