To simply wake up every morning a better person than when I went to bed.

If I'm remembered for having done a few good things and if my presence here has sparked some good energies, that's plenty.

Far as I can tell, I still have most of my hair, my gut is not hanging over my belt, and I still have all of my teeth.

I'd seen my father. He was a poor man, and I watched him do astonishing things.

Every new fashion is a form of rebellion.

When you walk with someone, something unspoken happens. Either you match their pace or they match yours.

My father was a certain kind of man - I saw how he treated my mother and his family and how he treated strangers. And I vowed I would never make a film that would not reflect properly on my father's name.
