I make up stories about people who are either imaginary or some variation of myself.

I didn't grow up with my mother, and so losing her for real was like, some sort of latent childhood, some sort of unresolved issue. When she left for real, it was sort of like, I was done.

If you don't believe in yourself, somewhere or another, you sabotage yourself.

I still have imaginary friends who I talk to in my head.

One of my problems is to find the self.

I had an imaginary friend. I don't know when I stopped having an imaginary friend, but my mom and everybody in my family remembers it pretty good. It's definitely true.

To disappear your complete self into a character is quite difficult. I've tried it 85 times, and I've succeeded two or three times.

I lost myself, and a lot of characters I played, I have latched onto some of their identities just because I was so lacking in anything of my own.

It's difficult to believe in yourself because the idea of self is an artificial construction. You are, in fact, part of the glorious oneness of the universe. Everything beautiful in the world is within you.

People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates.
