Every bad decision I've made has been based on money. I grew up in the projects and you don't turn down money there. You take it, because you never know when it's all going to end. I made Cop III because they offered me $15 million. That $15 million was worth having Roger Ebert's thumb up my ass.

Growing up, I liked all the stuff that everyone else was listening to, like Motown, but the biggest group of all was The Beatles.

I don't think there's ever been someone with as much presence as Elvis Presley, I mean if he walked into a room I think everyone would be looking at only him. Even when he was dying and through all that when you looked at him it seemed all put together. It fascinates me.

I started out as a stand-up comedian. And that's what I'm most comfortable doing.

How can you do the moonwalk and ask a woman to dance? Hey baby lets dance... cya later!

The best way you hurt rich people is by turning them into poor people

I'm in a position that allows me to do what I want to do, and I do it.
