Politics right now is in a very dark place, and I think the only place for me is to do what I do - make films, create art, watch it as it evolves. Right now it's like Humpty Dumpty sitting on a wall, and a great fall is happening. The behavior seems to be really dumb.

Now is not the time to repudiate environmental balance, but rather it is the time for all of us to work together - politician, advocate, rancher, scientist, and citizen. Only by doing this will the United States move forward and be a leader in environmental issues and ensure sustainability to our delicate ecosystem.

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

When did Noah build the boat? - Before the rain.

I'm gonna die but I haven't thought about retiring.

I'm not that interested in someone that one-dimensional, but I'm interested in playing somebody that's more complicated.

I'm not much interested in sport just as sport. I wouldn't be interested in making a golf film or baseball or fishing film.
