As A Person, I'm Anti-violence.

Here's The Problem: I Don't Like Who I've Become When My Iphone Is Within Reach. I Find Myself Checking E-mails And Responding To Texts Throughout The Day With Some Kind Of Pavlovian Ferocity - It's Not A Conscious Act, But A Reflexive One.

There's That Great Bill Hicks Line - The Comedian - Where He Says, "are You Proud To Be An American?" "i Don't Know. It's Just Where My Parents Had Sex."

An Obsessive Attention To The News, I've Realized, Only Serves To Paint A Picture Of The World As A Throbbing Blob Of Dysfunction, Most News Falling Somewhere On A Scale From Disappointing To Calamitous.

I've Always Been Attracted To Ensembles. When I Started Doing Plays In High School And In College, I Always Loved The Community Aspect Of It. I Loved These Little Families That Would Develop.

When I Go To Movies And I Love The Movie, It's Because It Feels Like It Articulated Something About How We're Living Now, And Also Gives Me Some Insight Into My Own Life. I Feel Actually Altered After Having Seen It.
