One should never be sexually involved with anyone one genuinely cares for. A sexual relationship guarantees a loss.

I went through a phase when I was 13 where I would only fall in love with people over the age of 19 or 20. I never had a real relationship with any of these people but it was definitely the guy I wanted to hang out with and wanted to go on trips with. I would be like 'But Daddy he's a musician!'.

In any relationship that comes to an end there's never just a baseline reason why. You say 'Oh I broke up with my girlfriend.' Someone says 'Why?' You say 'Well you got three hours? And then maybe after I tell you my version you've got to talk to her.'

I was supposed to have a relationship with Judy but that never happened. Actors in series didn't have the control that they have today over their jobs.

In my view relationship movies never get old because humanity will never not be confounded by their relationships.

We have to understand how the extremists got the way they are. Without that kind of understanding we'd never really get to know them. I put in nothing about their childhoods. But what I have put in is stuff about the weird symbiotic relationship between us and them.

Oddly I do have a problem with authority. I find it very difficult to knuckle down and follow rules. Which are the classic symptoms of someone who has a troubled relationship with their father. And yet I never had a problem with my father.

Every relationship I've been in becomes long-distance because of work. It's never worked out. It puts an intense strain on the relationship and at a certain point it becomes too difficult.

I always felt sorry for the sidekick as a kid. They never got their due and it left a very bad taste in the mouth - they are defined by a subordinate relationship to someone else. I always felt like a bit of sidekick when I was a kid and it didn't feel fair.

Till now I have never shot a scene without taking account of what stands behind the actors because the relationship between people and their surroundings is of prime importance.
