I'm in a happy relationship, me and my ex are on really good terms, my kid and I are in a good spot.

There are some parents who have really done it right and told their kid, 'You know, we have this dough, none of this is for you. You have to get your own.'

When you have a good script you're almost in more trouble than when you have a terrible script.

I read the script for Wonder Boys, and I said that was almost perfect, it was so classy, cool and funny. It's a really specific thing. We stuck to it, it turned out good and a lot of people liked it.

I understand reversal of fortune; that usually has come through my own hand, but you know, you live life on life's terms.

It's hard to get out of the barrel. It's slippery around the edges and people are happy to see you fall back in.
