My ambition from the very beginning was to make a good part for myself, something differently to what lately I've been doing.

I'm still interested in perfecting whatever talents I have and continuing to grow as an actor and continuing to be useful to the telling of the story.

I didn't play much ball. I wasn't much of a ball fan.

All my friends were going off to be professionals, and I said I wanted to be an actor.

Directing is too hard, it takes too much time, and it doesn't pay very well.

What's important is to be able to see yourself, I think, as having commonality with other people and not determine, because of your good luck, that everybody is less significant, less interesting, less important than you are.

Whoever had the bright idea of putting Indiana Jones in a leather jacket and a fedora in the jungle ought to be dragged into the street and shot.
