  • Quotes
    "I'm not interested in acting. And that's not to say that if I read a part that would be a lot of fun that I somehow felt connected to that I wouldn't maybe give it a shot. But I've spent too much of my life sort of in front of people, and not by choice. That's something that most people I think tend to not realize. It's stars who choose the attention, not their families. And that was always very uncomfortable for me." Explaining his decision to be a screenwriter rather than an actor like his father, December 7, 1999.
