I don't like to intellectualize about my acting.

Acting is fun and I refuse to get involved in the semantics and the politics of strategy and breaking out of something or doing something because you need to do something else. For me it's all about what fuels my soul and if I'm passionate about a screenplay then that's what I'll do next.

I haven't actually studied acting at all.

I don't prepare for anything very well. I am not a good actor. I don't read scripts.

The thing I like a lot about acting is I'll never learn enough. I'll never know it inside and out.

The minute I start to talk about acting, I realize that I can't. You know, it's an abstract thing, a little bit mysterious even if you do it for a living.

I never went to school for acting; it just comes to me. I never practice. I read the script, I'll memorize it. I don't even practice the acting. I'll just do it the day, and it will just come to me.

What's interesting about the process of acting is how often you don't know what you're doing.

I'm not as focused on my acting career as I have been in the past.

As a director, I also get to sit and watch actors and learn from them in a way that I don't get to do when I'm just acting.
