Hollywood expects you to experiment but on a film that makes money and if you don't make money, you're to blame. Your job is to make money.

The basic and essential human is the woman.

Now I'm an old Christmas tree, the roots of which have died. They just come along and while the little needles fall off me replace them with medallions.

I'm not basically a happy person, but I have all kinds of joy.

If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.

I'm a lurid character!

I hate women, hate them generally, not in particular but in an abstract way. I hate them because one never really learns anything about them. They are inscrutable.
