Life has never been easy. Nor is it meant to be. It is a matter of being joyous in the face of sorrow.

Children who cling to parents or who don't want to leave home are stunted in their emotional, psychological growth.

When I was a young actor... the more different you were from the part you played, the more talent it reflected.

Films must all have the same structure. All of this to guarantee box office bonanza, which of course it never does, but that's another discussion entirely.

My favorite thing is to be alone in a room with a blank paper in front of me and the time to fill it.

I never get involved with the ladies I work with.

I'm a classic example of what can happen if you follow your inner voice. I was cursed with interests and some talent in many different areas. It confuses people.
