I Know A Lot Of Other Actors That Don't Like To Look At Other References To Their Characters And Things. But I Like It. I Always Look At Everything, I Read All The Books. I Read Dieter's "escape From Laos." I Watched The Documentary Again And Again And Again. I Recorded It Just To Listen To Him A Lot. I Just Don't Suffer From Feeling Like I'm Getting Caught Into An Imitation. I Just Feel Like I Want To Steal Some Good Stuff If It's In There.

When I Imagined My Life, I Always Thought I'd Be In My Mid-30s Before I Felt Capable Of Marrying. But I Suddenly Found That I'd Met Somebody And I Said, "screw It. I'm Not Gonna Sit Here Saying, 'oh No, I'm Not Ready,' And Regret Not Having Done This Later On And The Possibility Of Not Having This Person Around." I Thought, I'll Jump Into It And We'll Figure It Out As We Go Along.
