I've never wanted to be the boss.

The only thing that I have done that is not mitigated by luck, diminished by good fortune, is that I persisted, and other people gave up.

I saw what luck and success I had as an opportunity to twist it up and do something different, so I've always sought out different genres and different kinds of characters.

[In relationships with a directors] I want to be able to give and take, and I can't name what it is: respect, energy, investment in the task, focus, humor, intelligence, but I always feel responsible for taking the money.

I was never that much a focus of interest in my career. I'm aware of that now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.

'May the Force be with you' is charming but it's not important. What's important is that you become the Force - for yourself and perhaps for other people.
