James Franco

"It feels really sad, to me, to go to a dark bedroom. It's like surrendering to the night or something."

"When we were doing 'Freaks and Geeks', I didn't quite understand how movies and TV worked, and I would improvise even if the camera wasn't on me. I thought I was helping the other actors by keeping them on their toes, but nobody appreciated it when I would trip them up. So I was improvising a little bit back then, but not in a productive way."

"My name is James Edward Franco. Ted is a nickname for Edward. That's what my parents called me. I also got 'Teddy Ruxpin' a lot. It just got to a point where I got sick of it, so when a teacher called out 'James Franco' my junior year of high school, I didn't correct her."

"I was a black center in the middle of all the nature. I was nothing, but I could do anything."

"All is good. Don't worry, the pain will help you. You'll get into some trouble, but it will work out in the end."

"They say living well is the best revenge but sometimes writing well is even better."
