You can never, never have too many books

I've always wanted to work with Hugh [Grant] because I loved his movies.

It's never too late. Don't focus on what was taken away. Find something to replace it, and acknowledge the blessing you have.

My limbs work, so I'm not going to complain about the way my body is shaped.

When I did 'E.T.,' it sort of solidified the only family I know are these film crews. These gypsies. These filmmakers. That was the solidification and the clicking revelations of 'This is what I want to do with my life and this is where I'm going to survive.'

I don't think that I have any musical talent.

A lot of my business is about protecting creativity.
