War's dirty little secret is that some men love it.

Perhaps the only thing in my favor is that I am very tenacious. I don't take 'no' very well.

It's irrelevant who or what directed a movie; the important thing is that you either respond to it or you don't.

Whereas painting is a more rarefied art form, with a limited audience, I recognized film as this extraordinary social tool that could reach tremendous numbers of people.

My criteria for doing a television series never changed. I wanted more stability, I wanted more of a sense of family, I wanted to do light comedy.

I can't stand outside myself and be anybody else.

I can't change my gender, and I refuse to stop making movies.
