The element of surprise wasn't allowed near the Periodic Table.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt
There's something really appealing about the simplicity of black-and-white images.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I collect flickering stars in old pickling jars, poking holes in the lids so they can breathe.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I have an eclectic taste in stuff whether it be movies or music or books or food or anything. Variety is interesting.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
But I would encourage anyone who has a crush on my character to watch it again and examine how selfish he is.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Astronauts and teachers are much more amazing than actors.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
The important thing is to find what's unique about yourself, find what's unique about someone else. And embrace everything in the moment, as opposed to constantly comparing yourself and your lover and your relationship to a static set of expectations.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I think acting is totally conducive to being a little kid, because kids are less inhibited and use their imagination.
