I only sound intelligent when there's a good script writer around.

I never, in any city I've ever been in, never remember the names of streets. The longest place I ever lived in was for five years and I didn't know the name of the next street over.

I would have been very happy just cruising around and enjoying the unexpected. I've never been ambitious.

I don't like filmmakers to tell people how they should react to their movies. I absolutely have favorites, and I have others that I'm mortified by, but I keep that to myself. I think I've managed to find some very interesting things that I've been very satisfied with recently. I don't know if that's gonna keep going.

It's very easy to leave when things go wrong, but to stick around and to basically give life to a town because of everything that it gave you generation after generation after generation, that to me is what defines a true American.

I always want to confuse people in terms of any kind of image and be unpredictable in any kind of movie I make.

I'm not really into musicals.
