It's only in innocence you find any kind of magic, any kind of courage.
The first instinct is love.
I like to believe that love is a reciprocal thing, that it can't really be felt, truly, by one.
Rebel is just as bad a word as maturity.
Oh, I'm a big-mouth. I said a lot of things.
There's a lot of mediocrity being celebrated, and a lot of wonderful stuff being ignored or discouraged.
There is no shame in my saying that we all want to be loved.
I'm not going to have a better day, a more magical moment than the first time I heard my daughter giggle.
If you don’t vote, you don’t matter.
Sense of self, and the way one shares it, is perhaps the most valuable and poetic gift in the arsenal of one's life and craft.
There is no re-inventing the wheel.
When everything gets answered, it's fake.
I do not believe in a simplistic and inflammatory view of good and evil. I believe this is a big world full of men, women, and children who struggle to eat, to love, to work, to protect their families, their beliefs, and their dreams.
I get a little scared of words like maturity.
So if we have anything original to offer, it's to speak from our own life about the society we're in.
I think we all have light and dark inside us.
All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz, and I'm fine
The bottom line is, you love your wife, you do your best with that.
That on a romantic level, if you feel it about somebody and it's pure, it means that they do too.
If you can't count on your heart having some kind of unified response, you can't count on anything. You use your heart as a barometer for your movie's completeness.
My favorite thing to do is not act - it's that simple.
I think that it is a good time for those who voted for the ban against gay marriage to sit and reflect and anticipate their great shame and the shame in their grandchildren's eyes if they continue that way of support. We've got to have equal rights for everyone.
I'd do anything to get a performance, short of malice.
Marriage ain't easy, but it's great most of the time.
I think life's an irrational obsession.
