One of the things that make motorcycling so great is because it never fails to give you a feeling of freedom and adventure.

When I believe in something, I fight like hell for it.

When a horse learns to buy martinis, I'll learn to like horses.

I deal with certain things in my work because of who I am. I make work in order to make people think.

I live for myself and answer to nobody

I've got a feeling I'm leaving stardom behind, you know. I'm gradually becoming more of a filmmaker, acquiring a different kind of dignity from that which you achieve in acting. After all, I'm no matinee idol, and I'm getting older. I don't think I can be doing my kind of thing in the seventies; I want to be on more of the creative side of business.

I find it difficult to breathe when l'm in the space. There seems to be no oxygen. I want to put people into a situation where they're sensitive to themselves watching the piece.
