Think about it.
You know what I mean?
Approach life with a little bit of humility.
Hold on to what you believe, obviously, but keep listening.
Nobody gives a fuck.
Nobody remembers.
You spend your 20s and 30s thinking this is really important and then you realize no one fucking cares.
No one actually cares.
I don't know. I see some people like – I don't know. It's hard to tell because, you know, you see some people like doing crazy looking things and you think like that looks crazy. Why are you trying to look 18 years old?
He kind of looks like Jack Sparrow. I don't know. I don't know what you're talking about, but I can imagine. You know what I mean? You kind of can, like, I think you can go one of two ways. Like, if you see yourself all the time, and especially if, like, the way you make a living is by kind of in part the way you look or whatever, it feels like, you know, people can get, like, obsessed with it.
You know what I mean?
like afraid to get older i guess or you'd be in like in a yeah i think it's a tricky thing right like you you know nobody wants to get older right because what it means is like you're gonna die and nobody wants to really face that and also you just find out like you know i you know you're 50 man you'll when you get there you'll see like just regular shit that used to be normal hurts like moving around you're like damn what happened to me today you're like oh i why is my back hurt oh because i got up and then i sat back down you know what i mean like
Yeah. I petted a small dog. It's like small injuries all the time, you know? And so you start to get a little bit that, that can kind of affect you. And I think if you, um, I think part of it's, you gotta just get comfortable with the fact that, uh, you know, and I guess I'm lucky cause I'm, I don't feel like, Oh shit, I better look young. And.
I, you know, kind of am who I am and, and I'm all right with that. And also kind of what I, what I like, what I'm interested in more and more is stuff that doesn't necessarily involve like how I look like that pressure. I think like for women, I, for anybody who's sees himself all the time,
There's things I really like about it and things I really don't like, right? And I wish they didn't have to be together, but they are, right? Like it's kind of life. You got to take the good with the bad. I don't really like to – Like do big social events or go out much. I'm kind of shy. I don't really want to be on.
Certainly when I'm like in my regular life and I'm walking around in my, you know, whatever underwear and T-shirts. I don't want people looking at me. I like my family and my kids and my life. I wish that were more private. I don't I don't know how many people really want. to be sort of scrutinized in that way. But I, I really like making movies and I like telling those stories.
And so look, the truth is I always knew that was kind of a part of it. And so, you know, I deal with it. I don't, there's things I, I don't love about this business. A lot of them, you know, it can make you kind of crazy, you know, it can record and there's stuff that's just no fun for me. Like, you know, events and shows and stuff like that.
I don't, some people really know how to have a good time. I wish I did. I wish I was out there like, great, we're going to hit it. And I'm going to, you know what I mean? Like, as if I had that attitude, I'd probably be happier about it.
You're like, what is that guy? I didn't, I don't know that character, but it's like, you're like, is he pissed?
Well, here's the thing. If the only time – like when somebody is taking a picture of me, I'm bummed because usually I'm with my kids. I'm trying to go somewhere, and then there's four guys. We're like – And I'm like, hey, man, can you give me some time? I'm trying to be with my kids. Do you mind? You know what I mean?
