The spiral in a snail's shell is the same mathematically as the spiral in the Milky Way galaxy, and it's also the same mathematically as the spirals in our DNA. It's the same ratio that you'll find in very basic music that transcends cultures all over the world.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I don't think action for action's sake is so fun, but when it helps tell the story, I love doing a good fight scene.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
I was studying for the SAT's and learning lines.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt
Even today, in our progressive times, in most movies that come out, the men have to have biceps and the women have to be thin or something.
