• Last year I picked up the New York Times and there was a story about a kid from Dartmouth who was bragging that he never left his room, and made dates and ordered pizza with his computer.

• I was really unfit last year, so I worked out for a long time, then spent time by myself in Oregon.  For about two months the only person I saw was my trainer.  Every day I did a lot of running and I just didn’t want to talk to anyone for two months.  So when I started talking again, it was like you would communicate wrongly, like you wouldn’t really remember how to speak.  That was one of the key things as well as just reading the book, reading the script a million times, just figuring things out.
