My feeling about growing up in New Jersey was, 'How come I'm not in New York?' That being said, I'm older and I have a better worldview now, and so I think I grew up in an incredibly privileged position. The town I grew up in is beautiful. I got a great education, and I'm very grateful for it.

I'm much happier talking with people than I am flirting with them.

Whether or not you agree with Ayn Rand - and I have certain issues with some of her beliefs - the woman can tell a story. I mean, the novel as an art form is just in full florid bloom in 'Atlas Shrugged.' It's an unbelievable story. The characters are so compelling, and what she's saying is mind-expanding.

I love the short-haired lifestyle.

We are grateful to God.

On the one hand, I'm grateful to be hired and thrilled to be paid.

My family didn't have a lot of money, and I'm grateful for that. Money is the longest route to happiness.

I'm very grateful of my life and my career and the movies I've been able to make.

My mum and dad were very strict with me and I am grateful for that because all I wanted to do was play football and I didn't want to go to school.
