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

There's nothing like sitting back and talking to your cows.

We can't repay our good luck with bad grace. It invites darkness.

You need to learn to live with your mistakes. And you need to be in a position to say No once in a while. It's important in life, and it's important for any career that you want to pursue.

Nobody wants zealotry in a police force, you know? You do want to know that the guy who's got that badge, is confident enough to judge a certain level of benign corruption. Like a man steals some food to feed his starving children.

My children have never watched any of my films. Charlie knows that daddy makes movies, but he says they are not good enough for him to watch.

I hate having long hair. It's like walking around with a dead koala on your back!
