When I see a young person on a reality show, I don't think, "Oh my God. They could be better." I think, "Oh my God. They are really good for 17. They're going to learn so much!" If they're this good at 17, imagine what they're going to be like at 20.

I've had people appear in my life that have helped me. I had more fun. I approached it thinking how would Jack Nicholson, "How would he do it?" So that's really what I did was I created this Gremlin character. So now people come up and they say 'Oh The Exorcist!'.. and I'm like "Did you see Repossessed?"

God is so much nicer than you can imagine. I know "nice" is an odd word, but He loved you enough to die for you.

I think what is probably hard for people to imagine is how wrapped up the 17 years' work on Harry Potter is with what was going on in my life at the time. I was mourning the loss of this world that I had written for so long and loved so much. I was also mourning the retreat it had been from - from ordinary life, which it has been. And it forced me to look back at 17 years of my life and remember things.
