There's that great Bill Hicks line - the comedian - where he says, Are you proud to be an American? I don't know. It's just where my parents had sex.

I went through this very serious Woody Allen phase in college and a little bit after college. I still see his movies.

Image
I sometimes don't know what I'm writing when I start writing it, on some level.

Image
Everyone has expectations. You just don't want to have them dashed, so you're quiet about them.

We're like a gardener with a hose and our attention is water - we can water flowers or we can water weeds.

Image
I have really good female friends. I've never bought the whole men-and-women-can't-be-friends thing. I think that's sort of nonsense.

Image
I find myself going out less and less. When you're 22 and see older people start to do that, it's depressing, but once you hit 30, you think, 'Wow, I've been working all week - it might be really nice to stay in!

Kindness is not about instant gratification. More often, it's akin to a low-risk investment that appreciates steadily over time.

I learned a lesson which I didn't heed: Don't put yourself in your movies. It's too much.

I'm not a masochistic reader. If something is just too dense or not enjoyable, even though I'm told it should be good for me, I'll put it down. That said, most of what I read would be considered high-end or good for you, I suppose. But, I also think that reading should be enjoyable.

I actually have a thing about proper nouns. They clang on my ear in a weird way when I hear them dropped into movies.
Josh Radnor
Image
It really shocks me when I encounter people who think kindness doesn't matter. Because I think it's pretty much the only thing that matters.

Image
I really like to travel when I write. Something about seeing new things and being in new cultures and environments provokes new thoughts in your head.

Here's the problem: I don't like who I've become when my iPhone is within reach. I find myself checking e-mails and responding to texts throughout the day with some kind of Pavlovian ferocity - it's not a conscious act, but a reflexive one.

Well, I stopped drinking. That was actually a big deal. I didn't go through any harrowing rock-bottom experience. I just made a decision to stop drinking.

I don’t think evil people or negative people are inherently interesting all the time. People who are good people getting better at being themselves - to me, that’s something that’s really interesting to watch.

We are so vocal about what we hate.

A movie can and should have some real dissonance throughout - rage, heartache, tears, conflict, catharsis and all the other elements Aristotle demanded of a good story - but the chord has to be resolved.
Josh Radnor

And so, however many people watch this thing, that's how many different opinions there will be about it. But I don't feel like it has an agenda in terms of its ideology. It just presents a story like a mirror. It's a mirror more than it is than a distorted mirror.

If I’m feeling something, I have a lot of different ways to express it, you know? I can write an article about it. I can write a screenplay about it. I can act in someone’s thing.
