You create a little world when you are making a film and you have to feel that you would want to be a part of that world. I sometimes look at the scripts I get and think 'what are they thinking?'

I may not be perfect, but I'm trying.

I also like men who like dogs. I couldn't date a man who doesn't like my dog.

If I'm walking very, very fast down Madison Avenue in the middle of the day, I'll say I'm stopped 10 times.

I like green or brown eyes. Tall but not overwhelmingly so. I like men who do yoga and meditate.

I just loved being in the theatre with all those crazy, creative people.

I've been dating since I was fifteen. I'm exhausted. Where is he?

Where I come from, a lot of people didn't have money, but they didn't have gangs or drugs either.

Sometimes, when you're acting, you are so in the moment that you don't even remember what just happened.

Sometimes it would be nice to just have some red wine with dinner, but it's not worth the risk. I have a great life, a great situation. Why would I want to risk self-destructive behaviour?

Everyone would talk about their diets and working out and what it made me do was go to craft services where all the food for the cast and crew was and I would eat.

Don't die without fulfilling your purpose.

Do not become self-absorbed, but become self-aware.

Meaning can be found in action.

[Pure research] is worth every penny it costs.

Cars and cameras are the two things I let myself be materialistic about. I don't care about other stuff.

Anything you're trying to will is focused on the future it's always associated with some sort of anxiety that makes the present moment somewhat uncomfortable.

Forgiveness in the heart comes about when the walls of separation in the mind fall.

If you make a movie about Elizabeth I, how much of the dialogue is her real words? Audiences know when they go see a movie that it is fiction.

My wife Margaret is the best thing that's ever happened to me.
