I live in New York City, so there's so much stimulation when you walk outside, it does not require a television in the home.

I prefer playing characters that are going through turmoil. Most movie characters are just in service to the story.

I purposefully isolate myself from anything that has to do with any press. I don't read any press about myself.

I'm hardly the most notable person in 'Zombieland.' The other actors in it are way more famous than I am.

I'm no good at really anything that involves motor skills.

I'm not into music - the only music I like is musical theater, but I have every Ween album.

I'm not on Page Six, because I don't have anything salacious happening in my life... unfortunately.

In acting class, you're trained to express yourself as much as you can.

In New York, everybody is their own celebrity, so they're not so interested in other people.

It's very hard to be a playwright because it's very competitive.

Nothing is harder than working with an actor who doesn't take it seriously or show up in the same way that you are.

People ask me what my hobbies are in interviews, and I always say biking. But all I bike for is to get to rehearsal more quickly.

Society will decide after the technology is created what we will and won't accept.

The frustrating part of being a movie actor is waiting in your trailer to do two takes of a scene you've prepared for two months.

The more people say nice things about me, the more I feel it's false.

The movies that are really big, at least in my experience, oftentimes don't have characters that I feel as personally connected to.

To criticize Facebook is to criticize the telephone.

And I'm sure after Facebook it will be the little cameras that we have implanted into the palms of our hands and we'll be debating whether we should get them, and then we'll all get them.

Acting is a weird, kind of alienating job because you're in an isolated place. Even if you're working with a lot of other people, you're kind of alienated. Actors say that a lot, and I kind of find that to be true.

Acting is kind of difficult to intellectualize - it's a far more visceral experience. It's really hard to be able to think about and then employ these kind of esoteric notions of this person's backstory and try to weave it in somehow. It's just kind of impossible.
