What is extraordinary about contemporary art is the energy — it has our energy. New energy. Pieces hundreds of years old are beautiful from an aesthetic point of view, but without our modern energy.
I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.
With genetic engineering, we will be able to increase the complexity of our DNA, and improve the human race. But it will be a slow process, because one will have to wait about 18 years to see the effect of changes to the genetic code.
I played guitar in a band from when I was about 20 for three years. Then I sang a little. Then I started getting really busy as an actor and forgot about it.

When I was able to go to school in my early years, my third grade teacher, Ms. Harris, convinced me that one day I would be a writer. I heard her, but I knew that I had to leave Georgia, and unlike my friend Ray Charles, I did not go around with 'Georgia on My Mind'.

I think in terms of the day's resolutions, not the years'.
I made some salt and pepper shakers a while back and waited three years for them to come.
I am trying to do the best work I possibly can and making movies that will have resonance for years to come.
