“He’s a very education-minded person. We used to laugh because in between takes he’d be reading The Iliad on set. We still haven’t read The Iliad. It was a very difficult book. With him, it was always James Joyce or something.”- Judd Apatow

James Franco + Books

“I don’t even like to sleep - I feel as if there’s too much to do.”

James Franco + Cats

“All my recent cats have been named after characters from books or the literary world. Sammy’s named after Sammy Glick from [Budd Schulberg’s] What Makes Sammy Run, and Zelda is named after Zelda Fitzgerald. You can see some of their hair.”

Happy Mother’s Day!

“Painting was my passion, but I needed to make money. Then I had James and [his brother] Tom, and those two were so mischievous and curious they had to be distracted while I was working or else and they probably would have eaten the paints!  They were my top priority, but as a practical person I knew I couldn’t exist without being creative.  That’s why educational publishing was so appealing and eventually gave way to my own writing projects.”- Betsy Franco
