I've taken advantage of a few breaks that came along and moved along with them.

At certain points if your life, you like doing more. I'm not sure what causes it or for what reasons; you just do it.

A lot of times people get to a certain age and they quit. I always felt sorry for the Frank Capras, the Billy Wilders, directors like that, because they quit in their sixties. Why would you quit? Think of the great work they could've done in their sixties, seventies, and on up.

I don't write. I usually look for material by other people. Sometimes I change things or adapt things but I don't write from scratch. I wish I had that ability.

Directing is more like you're being a psychologist and you're kind of analyzing the situation and evaluating each person for their idiosyncrasies.

[FBI] philosophy is "Go ahead and make the story you want to make, and hopefully we'll love it." So that's that.

A good man always knows his limitations.
