No, I never went to college. Always regretted it, always envied people who did.

I've produced my own films for twenty years now - it means I have to talk to less people.

And I taught acting for years, and without knowing it that was the real thing that started bending me toward directing.

I'm not a very good predictor in any area of art, particularly my own. I don't know how to evaluate that.

I didn't believe that I'd ever be lucky enough to be able to make a living as an actor.

When you work without a script, you are in a sense working in a much more improvisational way than when you are prepared totally.

I didn't grow up thinking of movies as film, or art, but as movies, something to do on a Saturday afternoon.
