I quit college so fast I didn't even clean out my locker.

All good ideas start out as bad ideas, that's why it takes so long.

I missed my dad a lot growing up, even though we were together as a family. My dad was really a workaholic. And he was always working.

I love my kids as individuals, not as a herd, and I do have a herd of children: I have seven kids.

I've always been very hopeful which I guess isn't strange coming from me. I don't want to call myself an optimist. I want to say that I've always been full of hope. I've never lost that. I have a lot of hope for this country and for the entire world. . .

I just had a crazy, wild imagination all my life, and science fiction is the greatest outlet for me.

Every time I go to a movie, it's magic, no matter what the movie's about.
