It's such an intimate experience, being a director, artistically. It's deep and it's satisfying and it's wonderful, on so many levels, but it's also really scary.

The important thing to me is that I'm not driven by people's praise and I'm not slowed down by people's criticism. I'm just trying to work at the highest level I can.

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

The secret to riches is the same as the secret to comedy - timing.

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

Even bad men love their mommas.

I'd move to Los Angeles if New Zealand and Australia were swallowed up by a tidal wave, if there was a bubonic plague in England and if the continent of Africa disappeared from some Martian attack.
