Frankly, I got into the movies because I like the movies a lot.

When we make mistakes they call it evil. When God makes mistakes they call it Nature!

You can't handle the truth!

I don't want to direct a movie as good as Antonioni, or Kubrick, or Polanski, or whoever. I want it to be my own. I think I've got the seed of it and, what's more, that I can make movies that are different and informed by my taste.

For a long time, I was afraid to be alone. I had to learn how to be alone. And there are still times when I think, Uh-oh! I gotta talk to somebody here or I'm gonna go crazy! But I like to be alone. Now I do. I really do. There's a big luxury in solitude.

I'm the last guy in the world to feel overlooked by the Academy.

I only take Viagra when I'm with more than one woman.
