If one is married for a long time, and one does have a family . . . It is like an energy, a wonderful fire that never goes out underneath you, to help you go out into the world and do your damnedest.

I really enjoy working with younger actors. I just feel like we're all peers together.

I'd rather have a small part in a movie I love than a bigger part in one I don't care about.

People who run environmental groups and things like that, who have to listen to all kinds of nonsense and keep their tempers, are very diplomatic and very inclusive.

I love working with young people and young filmmakers, and I love working on first films. I think it's cool. It's fun. I just take it as it comes.

Only someone who believes in marriage would be married five times.

It is one proof of a good education and of true refinement of feeling, to respect antiquity.
