Ive realised that I dont need much. When I was in my 30s, I was like, I want the house, I want the dog, I want the car. But I dont need it. I dont really want it.
I dont want to be just considered a breakout comedic supporting actor. I want to be a breakout actor in anything thats a lead.
I know who I am supposed to be with. Im just waiting until the time is right. I know what i want. I want to be so sure of everything in my life and be so good on my own that someone just comes in to compliment it. I want somebody who is happy. I dont want to meet someone who needs me. I want someone who is good on his own.
Its such a paradox. You come from this place where you want fame; you dont want to be bourgeois, but you want to be successful. You want to be accepted, but you also want to be going against the grain. You want to be on the outside, but you want to be on the inside.
Fame is one of the potential hazards of this job, but I really just want to make movies. I want to be respected, sure. Who doesnt? But famous-famous? I just dont care about it. And if you genuinely dont give a damn about that stuff, you really are free.
But the average person doesnt have that much imagination. They just want to be entertained. They want to have the tableau presented for them. They dont want to participate beyond a certain point. They want the safety of the herd, to be catered to, sit back and enjoy.
I dont want to write a book; I dont want to go on T.V., because I stink at it. The only thing I have always been comfortable with is being in magazines.
Weeks go by, and I dont paint until finally I cant stand it any longer. I get fed up. I almost dont want to talk about it, because I dont want to become self-conscious about it, but perhaps I create these little crises as a kind of a secret strategy to push myself.
I just want to be at peace with myself, personally and professionally. I want to lead my life the way I want to without having to worry about what the other person may be thinking. Professionally again, I would like to be able to just do films that I want to without having to explain my reasons to my friends, family and fans.
Well. Like I said, I dont want to fight anymore. I dont want us to hate each other. And ... well ... I squeezed my eyes shut and then opened them. No matter how I fee about us ... I want you to be happy
I dont want to be a point guard, or a two-guard, I want people to think of me as "creative", I just want to create on the court.
Im aware that sometimes if youre trying to be somebody else, you end up saying words that just dont sound like your voice. And for better or worse, I want to be Paul Sinha, I dont want to be Bradley Walsh. Bradley Walsh is the king of what he does because hes Bradley Walsh.
People dont want to talk about death, just like they dont want to talk about computer security. Maybe I should have named my workstation Fear. People are so motivated by fear.
I want to have a media platform that is an honest broker and not just a mouthpiece for a political party.
I made a decision at some point to live a nontraditional life. I've become like, the opposite of a consumer. I just want freedom. I don't want stuff. I don't want clutter. I just want to be able to move freely. I want to be good to the people I love. But I don't want stuff. I just want, you know, love and big ideas.
I really dont feel like Im in any kind of contest. Except, maybe, with myself. Just want to learn and create and grow. Get better all the time with these filmmaking tools. I dont expect perfection from myself. Just progress.
