My happiest moment is the day they call wrap and I'm free. I'm not looking back.
I'm a bit of a loner, you know? I'm more quiet by nature. And coming from, you know, hillbilly country, I'm probably more reserved.
I'm 48 now and whatever I get music-wise, I get from my kids and that's it. I don't think I'll ever be hip again!
The Internet has done a wonderful thing for us. But democracy doesn't work unless people are well informed, and I don't know that we are. People just don't have the time.
You hear stories of intense actors who can't shed their character and who don't know who they are for a week or two after. I'm not that guy, man.
I was so intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn't living an interesting life myself.
Once you get older, you get a little closer to yourself, intimate.
By nature, I keep moving, man. My theory is, be the shark. You've just got to keep moving. You can't stop.
The latitude and longitudinal lines of where you are born determine your opportunity in life, and it's not equal. We may have been created equal, but we're not born equal. It's a lot to do with luck and you have to pass that on.
It's a lovely experience walking around a museum by yourself.
To be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.
When you first get opportunities, suddenly you get surrounded by a lot of people who want to make money off you but also are there to help. But they start telling you so much what you need to be and what you need to do to maintain some idea of career maintenance.
When I first moved to L.A., I discovered Roy London. I didn't know anything about the arts, the profession; I had no technique, I knew nothing, I'm fresh from Missouri. I sat in on a few classes, and they just felt a little guru-ish and just didn't feel right to me. Until I met Roy.
In some ways, I'm still a kid from Missouri and Oklahoma, and I'm trying to find my way.
I'd like to design something like a city or a museum. I want to do something hands on rather than just play golf which is the sport of the religious right.
We're so complex; we're mysteries to ourselves; we're difficult to each other. And then storytelling reminds us we're all the same.
I'm an Obama supporter, no question. But it doesn't mean there's nothing to learn from the other side.
I think L.A. is impossible. There's just too much media focus. You can't live a normal life.
I was born in Shawnee, Oklahoma.
Happiness is overrated. There has to be conflict in life.
