I hope I'm in a position to make stuff that I really want to make as opposed to stuff that I just have to make for money reasons, or to sustain a certain marquee value.

I'm one of those people that think certain things happen at certain times for all the right reasons.

I grew up hunting and fishing. I've always been into archery. I've always been into cars... In my family, that was just stuff we did. That's just the way it was.

I think writing really helps you heal yourself. I think if you write long enough, you will be a healthy person. That is, if you write what you need to write, as opposed to what will make money, or what will make fame.

I'm not the kind of guy who's taking advantage of my position.

You know, all that really matters is that the people you love are happy and healthy. Everything else is just sprinkles on the sundae.
