I did not love going out to parties or even get-togethers, really - I went to the movies, which, if you think about it, is an isolating experience anyway - and this was because I had anxiety about interacting with people.

Even great actors who transform who they are still go to a really honest place; I think that's sort of that special skill that actors have.

I know when it comes to TV, the writer is king, but to me, the filmmaker is king.

I'm a film nerd.

One of my favorite Tarantino films is 'Jackie Brown,' and 'Jackie Brown' does it so well, where I'm watching the back half of that movie, and I don't know which side Jackie Brown is playing. I think it's really ingenious for Tarantino to keep us in the dark on that.

I did have friends who have suffered from schizophrenia and mild dissociative identity disorder, as well as more extreme cases of social anxiety disorder.

Reality, in general, in my opinion, has gotten blurred.

When I first created the world of 'Mr. Robot,' I thought it would be a niche television series with a small, cult following.

I've seen shows that start to go down the path of fan service, and it really diminishes the quality.

If your loved ones are far away, and they're uploading pictures, you feel like that's enough: these loose strands through email, through social media, are going to supply this connection you have with that person. And I think that's keeping us isolated and lonely in a way that's very dangerous because we're unaware of it.
