“I've been trying to figure out for at least the last 10 years how to force myself into something more risky.”
“A lot of enslaved people actually made money, but they had no power.”
“I'm always trying to get my mind at peace. I know I hit my best when everything is chill.”
“Nothing in all nature is so lovely and so vigorous, so perfectly at home in its environment, as a fish in the sea. Its surroundings give to it a beauty, quality, and power which are not its own.

So the soul, sunk in God, living the life of prayer, is supported, filled, transformed in beauty, by a vitality and a power which are not its own.”
“My first professional acting job was in 'Hair' during the Vietnam War. So I think I've always been drawn to projects with a social conscience.”
“I don't have one thing I go back to, but we listen to a lot of music in the bus, and we always get a few songs or a few records that end up being themes for the tour. On tour I read all of George Saunders' short stories and all of Alice Munro's short stories. George Saunders is who has taught me about this question about whether or not love is possible in the contemporary world, with all of its simulations and all of its pop and divergences and all of the confusion and distraction. Whether or not contemporary reality is actually hospitable to love.”
