I really try my best not to get attached to a script, because I know what it takes: It takes you away from your family and what you like to do.

I feel very blessed in my career to have been able to bounce back and forth between different things, television and film, comedies and some dramas, but I am, um, as long as the script inspires me and there good people, that's it. I'm in.

I was very happy sitting alone at a dining room table, writing a script.

It's been a great adventure, everything I hoped for. But it's time to go home. I miss my family. I miss the Earth.

I'm not yet fortunate enough to take only the scripts that capture my fancy, but each one has to be a new experience, to put me in a light that audiences haven't necessarily seen me before.

The first thing that attracts me to any script is the writing. If I find myself becoming lost in a good yarn, then I feel certain that others will, too.

I'm all over the place. As you may have seen from the credits, I write with everybody.

I won't be able to do what I'm doing forever. There aren't that many scripts floating around for fifty-year-old chicks.

I like this other world, this forgetting of myself. The actor works in order to escape, not to find himself. You become an actor by leaving yourself, and then you have to keep acting. How tragic!

I don't know if I had ever found my place in the world until I fully committed to being a writer.
