I never liked the Oscars. They didn't do too much for me at all. I felt like a big, vulnerable hunk of baloney being used to sell some products.

Now, there is always a tremendous fear of science and progressing forward into areas of the unknown and it is a valid fear. Some of the genetic alterations of food are a little edgy.

Even though I play guitar, I don't do it publicly.

If you feel you have a film that's valid, you stick your ass on the line.

The only people who ever called me a rebel were people who wanted me to do what they wanted.

There's no greater purpose than service to others.

I don't see myself stopping, even though it gets harder and harder. Especially when you find out that you can't really compromise because of age.
