“I, every night I say, thank you, God, and I go to sleep. So I've never ever asked God for something, even when I'm in trouble, even when like my mother's fighting with me, and I don't have another conflicted conversation with her, where she's going to cry, and stuff like that. Or I want a film to succeed, or I want to buy something. I've never asked for that. So my relationship with God is a lot of gratitude, and you know, I feel very, very grateful for the place I'm in, of everything that I have.”
