Having love in your heart doesn't count for much if what comes out of your mouth is ugly and bigoted.

I learn more from the audience than I can from anybody else. Not from what they write on the scorecards, but how they respond to the movie while they're watching it - where they laugh and where they react.

When you're fearless, you take more risks because you're less conscious of failure or what can go wrong.

I'm not invited to the Vanity Fair dinner where they watch the Oscars - or even the Oscars themselves - so I sit at home and watch it with a bunch of close friends.

I never dreamed I would be producing the Oscars. That was a huge deal for me.

Before I did 'Rush Hour,' I was a big fan of Jackie Chan movies and I had seen all of them.

Woody Allen is in his '70s and he's making movies, so I look forward to getting there.
