My dad always told me that the best way to get somebody to get at you is to talk bad about them to somebody else.

There's been times when I've had heartbreaking moments and I'm like 'I can't believe you said that ' or 'I can't believe you did that'. And it hurts it still hurts and it'll always hurt but I've never had somebody that I truly cared about just walk out on me whether it was a boyfriend or an aunt mom or dad.

In Heaven I believe my dad is somewhere doing something nice. I feel I've been too lucky to travel this far without somebody guiding me.

I'm very at ease and I like it. I never thought I would be such a family-oriented guy I didn't think that was part of my makeup. But somebody said that as you get older you become the person you always should have been and I feel that's happening to me. I'm rather surprised at who I am because I'm actually like my dad!

I would never have done what I'd done if I'd considered my father as somebody I wanted to please.

When somebody who makes movies for a living - either as an actor writer producer or director - lives to be a certain age you have to admire them. It is an act of courage to make a film - a courage for which you are not prepared in the rest of life. It is very hard and very destructive. But we do it because we love it.

You take a number of small steps which you believe are right thinking maybe tomorrow somebody will treat this as a dangerous provocation. And then you wait. If there is no reaction you take another step: courage is only an accumulation of small steps.

My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.

Definitely River Phoenix is somebody that I thought 'This guy is very cool.' I wanted to be like him when I was a kid.

The second we see somebody on the street or meet someone we make snap judgments about them about who they are and why we wouldn't necessarily sit with them or why we would or what's cool or not cool.

I'd love to date somebody cool fun funny.

The problem to me is violence. It's not cool to kill somebody or hurt people.

A friend of mine has a big farm in the desert and she picks up feathers and roadkill for me then makes it into clothes. I think it's cool to wear roadkill. If I died and somebody wanted to wear my teeth around their neck to VMAs I'd feel honored.

The Internet is for haters. Everyone wants to knock somebody down but it's cool.

There was a great complexity to my father. He was a devoted family man. But in the same breath he simply was not suited to an anchored life. He should have been somebody who had a backpack an old map a bit of change in his pocket and that was it - roaming the world.

As somebody who in my second marriage insisted on a prenuptial agreement I can also testify that sometimes it is an act of love to chart the exit strategy before you enter the union in order to make sure that not only you but your partner as well knows that there will be no World War III should hearts and minds for any sad reason change.

I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me and if somebody is moved by it that's beautiful.
