To Be Put Simply Refugees Are Us.

The Nice Thing About Being A Director Is That I Can Say, "i Can Only Get Into The Room After The Kids Are At School, And I Have To Be Back For Dinner. And They're Coming For Lunch."

Artists Raise Their Kids Differently. We Communicate To The Point Where We Probably Annoy Our Children. We Have Art Around The House, We Have Books, We Go To Plays, We Talk. Our Focus Is Art And Painting And Dress-up And Singing. It's What We Love. So I Think You Can See How Artists In Some Way Raise Other Artists.

There Was A Time When I Was Really Going To Give Up Acting-- Right After Foxfire. I Was Trying To Find Characters With A Certain Strength And Things Going On, But I Was Always Disappointed. Wallace Was The First Thing I Did Where I Felt Their Ideas Were Better Than Mine.

Make Bold Choices And Make Mistakes. It's All Those Things That Add Up To The Person You Become.

It's Great To Jump Into Things You're Not Sure Of And You Haven't Done And That Are A Little Scary. That's What We Have To Do, As Artists.
