Everybody who's making the movies needs to work hard to make sure they're good. And if you don't show up and see the movies and support them financially, no one is going to make them. It's going to change unless it makes money. That's the long and short of it. You have to give in to the fact that it's a business.

Hey, I'm like the Wayne Gretsky of the entertainment biz - I have other people do my dirty work while I skate around and get to be a nice guy. What can I say? I'm a coward.

I can't impress enough upon people that if you tell an honest story that people relate to and people believe and invest in, you can do anything.

I don't like weddings. I never have. I find moments in them I really like, but I always look at them like, "Oh my God, we have to go to a wedding." My problem with weddings is that they are just too long.

In my years of acting, the one thing I was never able to do convincingly was to laugh on camera. Fake-laugh.

What's so great about working with really funny women is that vanity comes second. Whatever makes it real and funny, they're going to go for, and it's just great.

As a director, I really wanted to learn and I needed to get away from my own stuff to figure out how to just do things and work with good people.
