A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss... That's the trade-off. But I'll take it all.

To be in love with someone and be raising a family with someone and want to make that commitment and not be able to is ludicrous, just ludicrous.

I'm sure they're saddened by me, and I get frustrated with them. But I love them, and at the end of the day if they need me or if they need anything, I'm there for them. Family.

When I was a boy, I would ask about my family history, about my bloodlines. We really didn't know that much. We had a little Indian in us from the Oklahoma Trail of Tears.

I grew up in Oklahoma and Missouri, and I just loved film. My folks would take us to the drive-in on summer nights, and we'd sit on the hood of the car. I just had this profound love for storytelling.

I'm one of those people you hate because of genetics. It's the truth.
