“I don’t pretend to be perfect. I want people to see me as I am.”

If you are going to make something forever, you should be yourself.

You don’t need to give reasons for the things you do – you just have to do what you want. And sometimes the thing that seems messed up to everyone else is what’s right for you. You have to do it and not be ashamed of it.

Appreciate what you’ve got and follow your heart and you’re all good. Don’t over-complicate things.

I stand by every mistake I’ve ever made, so judge away.

When you love something, you get to know it. Then you feel the ownership and if it changes, you only love it as far as you know it because then you’re like, “What is this?”

I have no idea what I’m doing, and that’s kind of how I love it.

Anytime I hear that somebody’s really rich, the first question is, ‘Do you do anything with it? Or do you, like, chill? You just sit on it?’

I went through an experience that taught me that as soon as you think that you know how your life is going to be, something in the universe will make you realize that you really are not that in control of it.

I’m not the type of person that just needs to feel concrete and like nothing’s going to change. I revel in the change.

A lot of actors think that what we do is so important, like we’re saving people’s lives or something.

Sometimes you have to be selfish to get what you want and move forward in life.

If you’re an honest person, you’ll make mistakes, but it’ll be okay. The most interesting things happen after making mistakes.

Nobody lived my life. Nobody cried my tears. So don’t judge me.

I’m also human so I have days when I look in the mirror and go, “All right . Things are definitely changing.” I can see that.

I am fearless when I think I’m alone.

It’s impossible to always get across what I’m trying to say, but, if I just stay honest, then I’m not going to look back on any of these interviews and wonder what I was trying to do or be.

Without peace there can be no prosperity for any people, rich or poor. And yet, there can be no peace without erasing the harshness of the growing contrast between the rich and the poor.

No ‘we’ should be taken for granted when the subject is looking at other people’s pain.

You spend your life training to be an actor, observing people’s characteristics so that you can design characters around what you’ve seen.

I envy paranoids; they actually feel people are paying attention to them.

If you look at anyone who has achieved great success and wealth, people like Warren Buffett, Oprah Winfrey, or Lance Armstrong, they have all focused intensely in order to win.

I’m only interested in people engaged in a project of self-transformation.

To me, comedy is a great occupation because I don’t really worry that much about what other people think of me.

You are only afraid if you are not in harmony with yourself. People are afraid because they have never owned up to themselves. A whole society composed of men afraid of the unknown within them!
