I love Francis Bacon. I just saw a great Jackson Pollock exhibit at the Dallas Museum when I was home for Thanksgiving.

We worked together with Wes Anderson writing a couple more movies together: Rushmore [1998] and Tenenbaums.

You know you're in love when you wear condoms while having sex with other women.

Because it's me playing the character, trying to find a way to make it believable and entertaining and interesting.

I think somebody like Wes [Anderson] has a very good sense of style and is original. I think my sense of style got a little bit better after I was exposed to you guys at Valentino. Because I'm just in Hawaii and Malibu; it's just kind of T-shirts and surfing-type stuff.

If someone doesn't want me, I'm not going to hang around and win them over.

There's something people find hilarious about dogs surfing and dancing and talking in the movies. I think it's nice for people - I think it's wish fulfillment - to see animals talking.
