If you remembered somebody was as real as yourself, how could you kill anybody?
If you feel yourself falling, let it happen. I swear to you I'll catch you.
If you ever find yourself in the wrong story, leave.
Instead of blaming yourself for something you cannot undo, let it define you.
..Thirty's the end of being young, forty is where you stop fooling yourself.
It's kinda hard to get yourself into a good three-toweler when you got the dick of death.
Freeing yourself was one thing, claiming ownership of that freed self was another.
Don’t play with damaged goods, you will only hurt yourself.
You have to push yourself, to see how far you can reach.
Always go into meetings or negotiations with a positive attitude. Tell yourself you're going to make this the best deal for all parties.

It's amazing what you find out about yourself when you write in the first person about someone very different from you.
Acting is something I appreciate, and I think it's been an amazing experience. But I'm not passionate about acting the way you probably should be to call yourself an actor.
Being irrational and out of control is what happens in real life. Not cautiously choreographing your anger or your emotions, losing yourself in them is what happens in real life.
If you're inclined to dismiss L.A. as a place of unrelenting vapidity and generic 1980s architecture, then you're doing yourself and L.A. a huge disservice, and you're just not looking hard enough.
Art is very tricky because it's what you do for yourself. It's much harder for me to make those works than the monuments or the architecture.
I hope what I do has an art to it, and as an artist you have to try new things and keep yourself entertained.
In art, at a certain level, there is no 'better than.' It's just about trying to operate for yourself on the most supreme level, artistically, that you can and hoping that people get it.
