I've gotten much better at multi-tasking. It's hard, though. But, writing a script is not totally focused. You're taking little breaks, all the time. If a kid runs in, you give 'em a horsey ride. It's a pretty fluid process.
Matt Damon
I believe a solid, really strong middle-class is the key to making the country in the best way.
Matt Damon
It's just better to be yourself than to try to be some version of what you think the other person wants.
