I'm not going to have a better day, a more magical moment than the first time I heard my daughter giggle.

I lost a friend I was blessed to have. My thoughts are with the family of President Chavez and the people of Venezuela.

I don't see myself as a different guy than I was ten years ago. I don't have aspirations to be. It's really about where you're putting your energies. That's changing a lot.

I think that people like the Howard Sterns, the Bill O'Reillys and to a lesser degree the bin Ladens of the world are making a horrible contribution.

Oh, I'm a big-mouth. I said a lot of things.

I don't read newspapers too much , just because they tend to make me feel I have a political obligation that I think is a distraction from what my political offerings are going to be if I just make my movies.

The thing that's very close in the process is writing and acting, not directing. Directing's very different.
