I'm always moving forward and trying new things.

The art of making a film and its content are far more interesting to me than the result or impact.

I didn’t want the attacks to affect me. I don’t believe you should be led by fear.

I'm not interested in a film about golf but I am interested in golf as a metaphor.

I can't watch completed films - my wife makes fun of me.

That's another thing that's depressing: certain attitudes in Congress. They assume that you're dumb; they can take advantage of you being dumb. I find that offensive. It insults our intelligence. They're playing us for dumb and they're being dumb in doing it. But I believe that's gonna change. I think those people, the McConnells, are not helping us at all. They're taking us backward in time.

I look at going to Hollywood as going behind enemy lines. You parachute in, set up the explosion, then fly out before it goes off.
