People who commit adultery must die. Everyone knows that. Any movie tells you that!

I decided at age 9, but I was reinforced at age 13 when a teacher told me I had talent. I can't say she really motivated me because I already knew. I knew I had talent. I went to the Jewish community theater and got in plays there. Then I went for the movies.

Theater is completely different from film or television. It has a beginning and a middle and an end and it's different every night. And it's far preferable to any other except in the sense of not getting paid, people who want to eat should do film and television.

In my experience, it's usually up to the actor how a character is portrayed.

I really think that living is the process of going from complete certainty to complete ignorance.

I didn't understand 3-D in the fifties and I can't say I get it now either. I just don't see what the big deal is.

Civility is not not saying negative or harsh things. It is not the absence of critical analysis. It is the manner in which we are sharing this territorial freedom of political discussion. If our discourse is yelled and screamed and interrupted and patronized, that's uncivil.
