The Sun is such a lonely star. Whenever he comes out to see his friends, they all disappear.

I think, honestly, that the word 'indie' is a false gimmick. 'Independent' used to mean a movie that was financed outside corporate Hollywood, but a lot of what gets called independent these days is totally produced within that system. And there's nothing wrong with that.

When I was 20, I went to Paris and tried to meet French women. It didn't work.

When I arrived at Columbia, I gave up acting and became interested in all things French. French poetry, French history, French literature.

I stopped getting nervous a long time ago, so any time I do get nervous, which is rare - about work, anyway - I always take that as a really good sign.

When I was a teenager, if anyone recognized me for anything I did, it would ruin my day. I couldn't handle it. It was some sort of neurotic phobia. I guess I was paranoid that people would treat me differently, or in an unfair way, because of my job.
