The craving for information is so huge now, and it can be marketed at such a rapid rate.

Romney and Ryan would do a much better job running the country, and that's what everybody needs to know.

If somebody's dumb enough to ask me to go to a political convention and say something, they're gonna have to take what they get.

When you're making a movie, you can't think anybody will ever see it. You've just got to make a movie for the values it has. The greatest films were made because someone really wanted to make them. And, hopefully, the audience will show up, too.

I would like to be interpreted as a liberal libertarian, like leave everybody alone and let them do their own thing.

The main thing is, you just want to have your place in history. You hope that people will look back on it in 15, 20, 30 and beyond years, and say, "That was an exciting film."

When I used to be a contract player in 1954 at Universal, I wasn't getting good roles. I was getting one-liners, and then I'd be gone. But I'd hang around; I'd watch guys. And when I had days off, which was most days, I'd go down and watch other sets while they were shooting. Watch Joan Crawford or whomever. Just watch how they worked and how the director handled them. I didn't know anything about making movies, and there's a lot to learn.
