I have always been a huge admirer of my own work. I'm one of the funniest and most entertaining writers I know.

A cinema villain essentially needs a moustache so he can twiddle with it gleefully as he cooks up his next nasty plan.

When you come to Germany as a Jew you have an uneasy feeling, but I've always felt okay in Berlin.

I'm married to a beautiful and talented woman who can lift your spirits just by looking at you.

Be interested in everything. You don't have to adore it. I don't adore hip-hop, I don't think it's great music, but I'm interested, I listen. I watch a lot of new films, I see everything. I still read, I like books, whether they are old books, new books. I'm interested - you gotta stay interested!

American sex is generally straight. It happens at 11 o'clock Saturday night. In the rural areas, it happens at nine and it happens pretty fast. Got to get up the next morning, especially if there're kids. Can't make noise, either, wake the kids.

I love writing songs. I'm a songwriter.
