Insecurity around money. I have this profound insecurity about not having enough to provide for my family.

Self-doubt and a reoccurring fear that people would prefer the other Alfred Molina.

Believing in, even admiring, people who refuse to believe in me, and not believing people who do.

I wish I could be more patient. I always want things to get done or happen now.

When our children were born.

Those times when I feel equilibrium, maximum consciousness, and clarity.

While I’m on stage, you are all my guests, because that’s sort of the unsaid agreement. While you’re my guest, if something bad happens on stage, I often think of Julia Child, “Oh, the chicken’s fallen on the floor! Yes. Oh, well pick it up and put it right back.” And you know what? Everybody’s with you. […] So whatever you practice for on the engineering side that fails is all right, because we have a greater purpose. The greater purpose is that we’re communing together and we want this moment to be really special for all of us. Because otherwise, why bother to have come at all? It’s not about proving anything. It’s about sharing something.

My inability to keep track of personal possessions.

Perfection is always a desired goal, but it cannot be a primary goal. Expression has to be the primary goal, because otherwise, there is no need for an actual person to be there.

Very large bugs.
