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 don't have any plugs or tucks but people do what they want. I look at it as mutilation.

I think the Greeks invented sports as an antidote to philosophy.

Beer, it's the best damn drink in the world.

My only emotion is gratitude, literally, for my life.

We learn how to kiss, or to drink, talk to our buddies-all the things that you can't really teach in social studies or history-we all learn them at the movies.

A lot of people in the middle of their lives have a secret yearning for more romance.
