Making a movie is like making an ocean voyage, and the script is your ship.
I'm always stunned when I find out people like Roosevelt and Tolstoy weren't Jewish. How could I love them so much?
The only weapon I've got is comedy
My job is to go out and entertain the most people possible.
I love writing songs. I'm a songwriter.
I like people with big talents and small neuroses - not always an easy combination to find. I've discovered that if the neurosis is too big, it diminishes the talent and you wind up working too hard for what you get.
