I wrote about wasting time, which I suppose is a part of the great human journey. We're supposed to wallow, to go through the desert without water for a long time so that when we finally drink it, we'll truly need it and we won't spill a drop. It's about being present.

Maybe when you're alone or no one's looking, you dare to think, Maybe someday I could get to work with somebody like Quentin Tarantino. For me, it happened. And it didn't just happen once, it's happened twice.

Like everybody, I've had a lot of pain in my life and I'm a work in progress. You must have a true desire to see the world from a different point of view, and that comes with growing up.
