I would hate to see a UFO. Because it would ruin my life. I would have to talk about it the rest of my life, and everybody in the room would go, "Poor Kevin." Because you could not turn your back on the idea that you saw it.

I try to please myself. I don't try to anticipate what people want to see.

If it's fifty years from now and it still has the same value, that's a movie.

I'd like to put on buckskins and a ponytail and go underwater with a reed, hiding from the Indians... To me, that's sexy!

When I make a film I'm away from home for two to three months. So I want my kids to look at my films one day and say, I love his movies, I love his choices-because he loved them.

Conventional wisdom is so scary because what if everybody's wrong?

I'm not defining my band by other people's music, but by my own.
