I Changed All My Passwords. I Have

I Had Just Gotten Heroes, And I Had Just Found Out That I Was Going To Be Doing [star] Trek, And I Thought It Was Probably A Good Idea For Me To Create An Infrastructure That Would Allow Me To Do My Own Work And Put My Stuff Into The World.

I Found Myself In A Pattern Of Being Attracted To People Who Were Somehow Unavailable, And What I Realized Was That I Was Protecting Myself Because I Equate The Idea Of Connection And Love With Trauma And Death.

It Certainly Woke Me Up To How Vulnerable We All Are. I Think I Was Much More Cavalier About It Before I Started Working On The Movie [edward Snowden], And Then The More I Read The Documents Themselves And Saw Just How Sweeping And Indiscriminate The Intrusions Into Our Privacy Have Been, It Made Me More Aware.

My Relationship With Leonard [nimoy] Was A Byproduct Of Playing Spock That I Never Would Have Imagined, But The More I Got To Know Him, The More I Realized, There Are No Mistakes. I'm Playing This Role For Very Specific Reasons, And Maybe Those Reasons Have To Do With Where I Am Creatively In My Life, But Maybe They Have To Do With Where I Am Personally In My Life. Leonard Was Such A Teacher For Me.

I Just Find That There's Something About Looking Back On Interviews, Whether For Purposes Of Remembering What I Said About Something Or If It's For Posterity When I'm 75.
