I don't believe in God now. I can still work up an envy for someone who has a faith. I can see how that could be a deeply soothing experience.

The less people know about me, the easier my job is.

I'm very fortunate in the sense that outside of cohabitating relationships and so forth, I've always got on just as well with women.

I'm certainly not as tough as people think. I'm not a fighter and so forth. I'd just as soon go home.

You're anachronistic when you know that your feelings aren't going to have any effect on anything.

I think the Greeks invented sports as an antidote to philosophy. In sports there are absolute rules. It's not, What about this? What about that? Either you're safe or you're out. It's ten yards or it's not. It's in the hoop or out of the hoop. It's certain.

I never had a policy about marriage. I got married very young in life and I always think in all relationships, I've always thought that it's counterproductive to have a theory on that.
