A lot of Texans go up to New York and stay there forever. If there are any two places with more individual characters, I don't know them.

The only way to know how much is enough, is to do too much, and then back up.

I think it's real easy to be famous these days; it's not real easy to sustain success.

Gonzo' means taking an unknown thing to an unknown place for a known purpose. But sometimes we're lost in an unknown place for no known purpose.

I really do see it as the start of the second half of my career.

I've made many career mistakes in the eight years that I've been acting. I did films that I never should have. I was young, inexperienced, and a bit reckless.

I try to shut out ideas about why you should do things. Trying to do good architecture and really designing a career? There's some attention to be paid to that, but I don't think it's everything.

Honestly, I think there's a cycle to the popularity of fantasy and fairytales that usually coincides with times of unrest or hardship in our own world. By retelling these legends or immersing ourselves in fantasy realms, we can safely explore the very real, very day-to-day darkness of our own lives.
