I like to work in the morning. I like to sometimes go to a place where I'm all alone where I'm not going to get a phone call early that hurts my feelings, because once my feelings are hurt, I'm dead in the water.

I bring to my life a certain amount of mess.

When I was about 9, I had polio, and people were very frightened for their children, so you tended to be isolated. I was paralyzed for a while, so I watched television.

It is a little disappointing to see that your legs are not as strong. But I like the idea of growing old, and the thought of approaching death is not particularly daunting to me.

I've been offered lots of movies. There's always some actor who's doing a project and would like to have me do it.

Listen, if there's one sure-fire rule that I have learned in this business, it's that I don't know anything about human nature.

Sequels are not done for the audience or cinema or the filmmakers. It's for the distributor. The film becomes a brand.
