As a young man I prayed for success. Now I just pray to be worthy of it.

In L.A., nobody touches you. We're always behind this metal and glass.

I wish the rock 'n' roll scene to be back in.

It's nice to know that if you've worked really hard at something, it gets recognised with a tick in the success column - however you define that, be it making a bunch of dough, which the actors never see much of, or whether it's a piece that's enlightening or stays with the audience maybe six, seven or even eight or 10 years later.

I suppose if it has a practical purpose, I appreciate a pat on the back. I suppose it's rewarding, ultimately.

George of the Jungle is a cartoon. He's a guy who swings around on a vine all day. Are you not buying that?

I guess darkness serves a purpose: to show us that there is redemption through chaos. I believe in that. I think that's the basis of Greek mythology.
