Chance is another name that we give to our mistakes. And all of the best things in my films are mistakes.

If George W. Bush is elected president, I'm leaving for France.

They'll never give me an Oscar. And I sincerely, honestly don't care. I always turn up when I'm nominated and it would be nice to get one, but to win one would be bad luck. It comes with too much expectation. It would be the end.

Every ad for every film is exactly the same.

The artist and the multitude are natural enemies. They always will be, both ways. The artist is an enemy of the multitude, and the multitude is the enemy of the artist. And when the disguise comes off and they're both standing facing one another, they're just there at odds end.

Men make clothes for the women they'd like to be with or in most cases the women they'd like to be.

That wasn't an ending. It was just a stopping point.
