"You can never hate strongly unless you have loved strongly."

-- Christopher Pike

“We have been taught to keep the commandments, and we have kept them all too well. We have enshrined them like religious relics in sealed containers on the altar. Thus, it could be said that one lives by the commandments in much the same way as many persons live by a neighbor, never learning his name, let alone having any understanding communication with him.”
“I always try to take projects I'm genuinely interested and passionate about versus just trying to take projects for the money.”
“It's okay if you can't see what you're doing, cuz even when your eyes are open, you can't see what you're doing.”
“We're living in a den of thieves”
“I smoke to fill the potholes in my soul”
“How slender is the accommodation which nature has provided for man.”

“Of all American cities of whatever size the most friendly on preliminary inspection, and on further acquaintance the most likable. The happiest-hearted, the gayest, the most care-free city on this continent.”
“Improv is more than just spitting out a bunch of funny stuff that's unrelated to the material. You have to stay in character, you have to react and respond as the character you're trying to play. You have to service the story, and I think improv training has helped with my listening, responding, and my audition technique. It's sounds so silly, but it's true. Because not only do you improvise during the audition, but once you get the part, they'll say, "Throw away everything. Just improv this scene. Do whatever you want." Someone could panic if they're not used to doing something like that.”
