Reality is like a doughnut: Everything that is good and funny and juicy is outside the center, which is just emptiness.

My parents, and librarians along the way, taught me about the space between words; about the margins, where so many juicy moments of life and spirit and friendship could be found. In a library, you could find miracles and truth and you might find something that would make you laugh so hard that you get shushed, in the friendliest way.

It's easy to diet or get off a diet when you've got a juicy role to play.

It absolutely helped - to write the father in both 'Juicy' and 'Beasts,' I had to see the whole story from his point of view. All of a sudden I understood more of what my own father must be going through - the fear, the frustration, the anger... the hope that he'll leave a legacy.

I'm hungry for a juicy life. I lean out my window at night and I can taste it out there, just waiting for me.
