I'm in touch with the social networks and stuff.
I came away from 'Saturday Night Live' feeling very well represented. I felt, and I still feel like, they let me do so much stuff that I wanted to do. Stuff that I almost didn't even know what it was.
So, in a way I was hedging and saying that if the Olympic stuff doesn't work out at least I can be a lawyer.
I was always pretty good at school, but a lot of it was memorising, maybe cheating off your mates, stuff that gets you through.
My father probably - he had flashes of creativity - he used to do store windows for fruit stores that he worked in and stuff.
When you have a big heart and big stuff, anything is possible.
Painting today is pure intuition and luck and taking advantage of what happens when you splash the stuff down.
Friends, in my experience, are like ladies' fashions. They come and go with the seasons, and are rarely of such stout stuff as bears repeated wearing.
Would I describe myself as new Labour? I'm Labour, organised Labour. I think labels have a limited use and that's where you really get into boy stuff sometimes, just sticking on labels.
Most of the music I've listened to or grew up listening to - a lot of it at least - is instrumental stuff.
Touring, and being in a band, it's almost like the other stuff, the other parts of life, get put on hold.
I'm really careful with what the music gets put with, and we say no to so much stuff, loads of it, for things that might quadruple the sales of my album. But if it doesn't fit then it doesn't fit, you know?
I do get offered a lot more roles than I choose to do. I'm very busy as a producer and a writer, especially with my Internet stuff, and I tend to only accept the roles that I know will have an impact and has a fanbase.
You realize time isn't just a period that you tell a story within - it becomes a major character in the film. There is no beginning, middle, end because there is always stuff beginning and ending simultaneously.
Usually you always see first cut is an extended version, because it's basically everything you shot, and you have that version and then you start cutting stuff out.
All the stuff that you visualized that was going to work so beautifully, you discover is trashed, so you jump to something else.
A lot of the really great stuff fell between the tracks.
I love exploring in a rehearsal room with other actors, scenes and you know, stuff you are scared of.
I don't read good reviews. I like to know what percentages are going on. When Sony sends out something saying that people are liking the movie, I like to know that, but I don't actually sit and read the good stuff.
Im not an Internet person that reads behind-the-scenes stuff. I see a trailer, and if it looks good, then I go. Thats that.
Some of our stuff ends up looking too corporate. I'm going to be a lot stricter from now on.
You're going from audition to audition, changing in the backseat, and all that fun stuff that's great to do at one time in your life. That's when the 49-cent taco, as disgusting as it is, really plays into your day. It really helps you out.
Tony Kaye is great with that kind of stuff. Up until American History X, he had only done commercials.
- But Abraham, you mean I'm supposed to make stuff up !?!? - You are creators, you make stuff up all the time!
I go through phases of stuff.
