I'm not an especially highbrow person, but I have always loved small, quirky, edgy movies.

I do not quote my own movies. I think I would be pretty insufferable if I did.

I've always been a writer, I've always been a storyteller, but I never thought about screenwriting.

I have never been an ambitious person, and my participation in this industry is a fluke, but only male writers can afford to be coy and self-deprecating.

It's possible that I've matured as a writer, and I hope I've matured emotionally, but I always find myself revisiting these adolescent scenes.

I always say when you write a book, you're a 'one-man band.' Whereas, when you finish a screenplay, it's just a sketch.
