1 Age

  • 1. When I was a little kid I used to play with guys twice my age so I was the last one picked so if I picked I knew that I had to get the ball to the scorer if I wanted to stay on the court so that was pretty much my job.
  • 2. I grew up on the golden age of children's TV.
  • 3. Live your life and forget your age.

2 Amazing

  • 1. My heroes are guys like Tom Hanks Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon. These are amazing actors with amazing careers that every actor should aspire to. I'm not saying I'm going to get anywhere close. It's not going to be an easy feat. I'm just in awe of their careers.
  • 2. Gary Ross is amazing. He's just – he always has a billion ideas of what he wants but has a very clear perspective also he just makes it work. He really does. He's trying different things and making everything look amazing.
  • 3. I just believe that the feeling of wonder is amazing. I am pushing myself as far as I can humanly push myself… I can only hope for the best and expect the worse.

3 Anger

  • 1. I'm generally quite an angry person and I like to channel my anger toward something creative.
  • 2. For a long time I thought I could deal with my anger and hostility on my own. But I couldn't. I denied that it had affected me and yet I was so frantic on the inside with other people: I needed to be constantly reassured.
  • 3. The anger that Uncle Junior has comes from my background. My father was the son of an Italian immigrant and I've seen the fire of the Italian temperament. It can be explosive sometimes in ways that are both funny and tragic.

4 Anniversary

  • 1. A lot of good love can happen in ten years.
  • 2. Love is not weakness. It is strong. Only the sacrament of marriage can contain it.
  • 3. My mother and stepfather were married 43 years so I have watched a long marriage. I feel like I had a very good role model for that. And you know it's just a number.

5 Architecture

  • 1. Form follows function.
  • 2. No architect troubled to design houses that suited people who were to live in them because that would have meant building a whole range of different houses. It was far cheaper and above all timesaving to make them identical.
  • 3. Art is very tricky because it's what you do for yourself. It's much harder for me to make those works than the monuments or the architecture.
