You Can't Control Everything That Comes To

People Wrestle Sometimes Making Movies, And I Think That Conflict Is A Very Essential Thing. I Think A Lot Of Very Happy Productions Have Produced A Lot Of Very Banal Movies.

At This Point In My Life I'm Not Bent On Proving Anything, Really.

I Wish I Were More Musically Gifted, More Intuitive In Playing Instruments.

I Had A Huge Advantage With Edward Norton Because He's Directed A Movie Before, So One Thing He Appreciates Is How Hard My Job Is, He's Very Sensitive To That. We Actually Ended Up Finishing "leaves Of Grass" A Day Early.

I Come From A Family Of Conservation Activists, And So I've Had A Strong Connection To Nature All My Life. My Father Has Been A Leader Within The Movement For Over Thirty Years And Has Taught Most Of What I Know About Environmental Conservation. While He Would Always Take Me Hiking, Camping, And Rafting, He Also Taught Me That The Spiritual Value Of The Outdoors Alone Is Not Enough To Save Nature Against Economic Interests.
