Anyone from my past I'm interested in, I've already stalked their homes. I like to go outside.

The good guys in my movies mind their own business and they don't judge other people. And the bad guys are jealous, they judge other people without knowing the whole story, they want all the attention and they're mean spirited. So I think my films are politically correct in a weird way.

I could never kill myself. I approve of suicide if you have horrible health. Otherwise it's the ultimate hissy fit.

True success is figuring out your life and career so you never have to be around jerks.

I think middle America has changed very, very much. I think people are way more open-minded. I think - I think it's because the Internet. I think they're exposed to so much. All the men talked about how much they love their wife, which I don't hear all the time in art communities.

I don't think I had a bad influence on anybody. I made people feel better about themselves.

I imagine Johnny Mathis hates Bin Laden as much as I do, but could Johnny agree Bin Laden had a better speechwriter than Bush? "Axis of Evil"? Come on. "A swimmer in the ocean does not fear the rain" is much more powerful propaganda. Poetic, even.
