Although I don't know Oslo at all, there is something about the feel or the smell of the place that feels like home, which is quite interesting.
I don't do marriage. I think it's incredibly naff. And I don't like vulgar displays of ostentation.
I have a very ostrich mentality. I feel like I have my head in the sand so no one can see me.
He behaved like an ostrich and put his head in the sand, thereby exposing his thinking parts.
I had seen other comic friends of mine go to indie labels. Like David Cross and Pat Oswald went to Subpop, and Subpop didn't make total sense for me, but the metal version of that did. So I made a small list with Metal Blade, Prosthetic and couple of other labels, and Relapse was one of them.
Throughout my career, even as a very young actor, people have always said to me that they would like to see my Othello. They could see something of him in me, I suppose.
I think young people should travel and travel often to other countries... like I do.
Other kids could read, other kids could write, other kids could spell, they could do math. I felt like an alien. I felt like an outcast. I felt like, 'What is going to happen to me?'
I was a very good tennis player in Ottawa, Canada - nationally ranked when I was, like, 13. Then I moved to Los Angeles when I was 15, and everyone in L.A. just killed me. I was pretty great in Canada. Not so much in Los Angeles.
My memory is not even what most people's is, much less what it oughta be for a discussion like this.
Seems like everything people oughta know they just don't want to hear. I guess that's the big trouble with the world.
Like some kind of particularly tenacious vampire the short story refuses to die, and seems at this point in time to be a wonderful length for our generation.
Maybe our generation is more about sex, but it feels like romance is dying out.
Gosh, I'd like to direct Our Town on stage.
I like L.A., I like the fans, I like to come out here to work.
When I first got an outbreak of hives, I tried everything to find relief. I felt like no one understood what I was going through.
It's a relief to hear the rain. It's the sound of billions of drops, all equal, all equally committed to falling, like a sudden outbreak of democracy. Water, when it hits the ground, instantly becomes a puddle or rivulet or flood.
That's also why comedy and horror are my two favorite genres of film to write, because you get these outbursts of emotion from people, laughter and shock, and it's really thrilling, and I like to be thrilled.
I was, like, a kooky kid, so people thought I was loud, but I really wasn't. I was kind of loud in outbursts. I was like a silent volcano. When I did have something to share, it was very over-the-top. But I've learned to balance that.
It's really interesting that whenever you do something that is so out of character, like having an emotional outburst, that you don't get in trouble.
