You can't leave the thing that you are, the house that has become your biography.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't want to write an autobiography because I would become public property with no privacy left.
I don't leave the house without thinking of how to represent myself.
As a writer, I wouldn't know how to not take things out of my life.
You know, no matter what I am or what I do for a living, I'm still, you know, the husband and the dad and the protector of the house, and I have to be conscientious about that.
I don't want to get into autobiographies; I don't want to talk about myself.
I certainly don't want a child of mine to be famous, or anyone I was very close to who isn't yet... It's the worst thing to be trapped in your house not be able to leave.
You can't get away from who you are I guess.
A home should be an intimate autobiography of the things that you like. One of the things I'm so keen on expressing is that, if you don't do it for yourself, if you're always seeking affirmation from outside, you'll never have a home. It'll just be a house.
You have to leave things that you love.
A house is very much like a portrait. I cannot disconnect houses from people. The thought of arrangement, the curves and straight lines. It gives an indication of the character at the heart of it.
