My mother sent me to psychiatrists since the age of four because she didn't think little boys should be sad. When my brother was born, I stared out the window for days. Can you imagine that?

I never told a joke in my life.

If I play my cards right, I could bring network wrestling back to TV. Unfortunately, to most people, wrestling is a laughingstock. But fortunately, I'm reaching people who otherwise wouldn't watch it.

I was thinking of going to London drama schools or to New York, because France didn't accommodate the things I wanted to do in film.

Actions are always more complex and nuanced than they seem. We have to be willing to wrestle with paradox in pursuing understanding.
