I remember the first time I stepped into the ring at age 16. I loved hitting things… but who likes getting hit?!

My dad likes to take the mickey out of me for saying everything is ‘amazing.’

I saw a ’60 Minutes’ piece on Google as a place to work. It was such a foreign concept from what I understood as a regular job. There’s free food, sleeping pods, Ping-Pong. I’m the kind of guy who likes to get involved in everything – I’d be all over the Ping-Pong.
I’m just someone who likes cooking and for whom sharing food is a form of expression.

A cactus doesn’t live in the desert because it likes the desert; it lives there because the desert hasn’t killed it yet.

Everyone likes fantasy to get away from everyday life, but I think ‘Game of Thrones’ is not like fairies and unicorns. It’s very relatable to everyday life. It’s not too fantastic – just a little bit.

I mean, that’s the way the business world works and whether or not the industry likes it or not, they can’t stop you from submitting to multiple agents and you know what? If an agent misses out on you because they took too long with your query letter, tough luck for them.
