I don't play chess with my life, ya' know.

I don't make demands. I don't tell you how it should be. I'll give you options, and it's up to you to select or throw 'em away. That should be the headline: If you're insecure, don't call.

Once you're a parent, male or female, every single thing that happens in your life is seen through the prism of being a parent.

I'm not one of those fellows that is just going to have a psuedo-middling relationship.

I have to believe I got some kind of say over our lives.

I've always found it to be a privilege to make movies. It's a really expensive, creative medium. And people allow me to do it, and there are things that I can do as an actor that I couldn't do in any other walk of life.

I really feel sorry for people who are, who divide their whole life up into 'things that I like' and 'things that I must do.' You're only here for a short time, mate. Learn to like it.
