I don't experience basic human emotions. It's not my thing.

I've seen the future! It's a bald-headed man from New York!

If we had 3 million exhibitionists and only one voyeur, nobody could make any money.

One of the things I like about a character: I always think it's fascinating when a character can turn on a dime and go from one emotion to another. I like watching that.

I've always been in the middle of making my own movies, so taking acting jobs that take me away from that has been impossible.

I've never been disappointed, because I've never given somebody I liked that much power.

I guess 'The Player' was a pretty good L.A. movie. And 'Chinatown.' Was there ever a better L.A. movie about a certain period in L.A.? That was terrific.
