At school I was always trying to con my teachers into letting me act out book reports instead of writing them.

All the things that most kids hated, I loved. I loved that things were asked of me and that, much to my surprise, I was able to do them. I loved the 10 o'clock bedtime. I loved the responsibility.

The good thing is that I'm always honest.

I've always thought that I'm sexy in my own right, but not in a way that people thought was bankable.

The goal seems to me at times just to be business first.

It's very hard to put forth a film that's about love and the joy of love and for it not to be patronising and not make people nauseous or make them roll their eyes.
