Lincoln was the greatest speaker and he was ridiculed for how he looked, you know?

I don't think I'd have been as good as Bruce was. He was a better JFK than I would have been.

There's a moment in time where kids really don't want to hear anything from their parents.

It's nice to be wanted. That's a really good feeling. I'm not immune to it.

I have instinctually thought I could do things in my life, and I followed that up by sometimes putting everything I have at risk - my money, my house - to make a movie.

When you draw a western correctly, you create such drama, such dilemma that you think you almost don't want to admit who you might have been.

I wouldn't do the movie unless I thought it had a chance to be good.
