My grandmother was utterly convinced I'd wind up as the Archbishop of Canterbury. And, to be honest, I've never entirely ruled it out.

I find it hard to understand why Scorsese has never called. You know, given the natural menace I bring to the screen.

Basically, my life is so boring, it's embarrassing.

The reason I turn down 99% of a hundred, I mean a thousand, scripts is because romantic comedies are often very romantic but seldom very funny.

I had Courtney Love's left bosom out of her dress on my plate in front of me. It was extraordinary. I didn't know where to look.

I'm a laugh tart. I make no secret of that fact.

The only reason my work seems to be eclectic up to a certain period is because I was a failure as an actor.
