Our life is looking forward or looking back, that's it. Where is the moment?

I don't like a lot of things like [Iraq], I never did. Being in a position of celebrity and having your words carry such unnatural weight...I've always been a bit squeamish when it came to that kind of thing.

The reasons you have for doing a movie will vary with the way your life is going. There was a time when a made a some movies because I felt I needed to work. And I didn't think about the material as much. But sometimes I've thought about the material a lot and thought I was doing the right thing, and it didn't work out.

I went back to the stage because it was my way of dealing with the success I had, my way of coping. It was a way of escaping the responsibilty of what was happening.

I don't need bodyguards. I'm from the South Bronx.

I turned down a lot of films before I made my first one. I knew that it was time for me to get into movies.

The only thing in this world that gives orders is balls.
