A guy came up to me in the park and asked if I wanted to buy his CD. I said sure. He got panicked and told me he didn't actually have a CD, and he started crying and then told me he never made it and he's really sorry and called me 'Ralph.' New York's a really weird place.

I'm lactose intolerant, so usually pizza makes me feel horrible. But I'll occasionally go very hard and do pizza and pineapple.

I'm obsessed with New York. I want to marry it, maybe bear a few children with 42nd Street.

If I'm 'the kid from 'Hereditary'' for the rest of my life, I'll be satisfied.

I was going to be a doctor, but who makes it as a doctor anymore?

I would love to work with Dustin Hoffman, John Malkovich, Omar Epps, Martin Scorsese, Josh Mond, Woody Allen, Paul Thomas Anderson, and David O. Russell, just to name a few. Those guys are absolutely brilliant at what they do.

I've always done things that were true to me.

Even if you don't want to admit it, I think when you're in 10th grade, you're never more sensitive in your life. You're just so vulnerable and so angry, or at least I was.

I had a very rainbow-colored childhood.

Me and the Rock do look a lot alike, and we're a similar build - that was a joke, by the way.

I like L.A., I really do, but I'm really a New Yorker. In New York, there's a feeling that you're not praised or treated too preciously. No one ever feels too important because someone on the subway will reassure you that you're not.

My favorite movies are movies from the '70s, like 'Midnight Cowboy' and 'Dog Day Afternoon' and 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest,' and to me, 'Hereditary' seemed like it fit in with those movies, and it was just horrifying. It seemed like it took the things that I love about movies and really fleshed out characters.

'Catcher In The Rye' was my favorite book, honestly. I read it when I was thirteen, and the book was a bit of a family heirloom because it was passed down from my grandfather to my father to my older brother and then to me.

I've enjoyed all of the roles I have played for different reasons, which is the great thing about acting. You love different projects for different reasons.

I can't imagine a world where I wouldn't have the means of expression. When I talk to people who don't, it seems like they're really unhappy.

The funny thing about 'The Naked Brothers Band' movie was that we tricked the audience into thinking that we were actually rock stars.

I think Nat's an amazing actor... He understands things about acting that most people don't.

It's harder for me to relate to people who don't have families that are loud and crazy.

It was fun in its own way, but I think 'Dahmer' was ultimately one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and my career.

People are often very limiting to themselves and can be their own worst enemy.

My mornings start with mom coming into my bedroom and waking me up, or trying to wake me up, and then I go back to sleep. Then my mom wakes me up again and yells at me. Then she'll get me to wake up, and I'll get dressed and go to school. We go to school, and my teacher tells me that I didn't do the homework well enough. And that's that.

If they made a movie about Bob Dylan, I would love to play a young Bob Dylan; I mean, I've got the wild hair.

The closest thing to religion our family had was worshipping The Beatles.

Nat doing 'Fault' was the greatest thing for our band, and the only reason that our song got in it because Nat was screaming it in the movie. Now we can say that we have a song in 'Fault in Our Stars,' and we have a thousand fans who went to listen to our music because we performed at an event for 'Fault in Our Stars.'

There were many times when I could have gone down the path of being a child star, which I know can be bad; I think, especially in L.A., it's easy to get caught up in that life.
