On my tombstone, I want written: 'He never did 'Love Boat!''

Ignorance sheer ignorance. There is no confidence to equal it. It's only when you know something about a profession that you are timid or careful.

By nature, I am an experimentalist. I don't believe much in accomplishment.

I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.

I passionately hate the idea of being with it; I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.

When you are down and out something always turns up - and it is usually the noses of your friends.

'The Godfather' was the glorification of a bunch of bums who never existed.
