Man, I was drowning in sadness. And Angelina, she lifted me right up out of there.

Tower Records is like a temple to me. I'll stay there for hours. Nobody can shop for records with me. It drives them out of their minds.

Acting is playing - it's actually going out on a playground with the other kids and being in the game, and I need that. Writing satisfies that part of myself that longs to sit in my room and dream.

The loneliness was relentless. The air grew so thick you could drown if you took a deep enough breath.

Movies these days have made killers into funny people. What's that all about? I've got kids and family and friends, and I don't like bad things. I don't think they're funny, and it's irresponsible to make movies that don't show you how that's not good.

I believe in running through the rain and crashing into the person you love and having your lips bleed on each other.
