There's nothing more boring than unintelligent actors, because all they have to talk about is themselves and acting. There have to be other things.

I've used drugs that I do consider to be dangerous, drugs that are potentially detrimental to kids and society at large.

I've been lucky-my looks haven't put me into one category. I don't look like a blue blood. I don't look like a criminal. I don't look like anything.

I ran spotlight. Swept up. Did box office. Ran the lighting board. But acting was the most fun.

You get money out of acting. You get gray hair out of directing. Actually, I get more of a rush from directing.

I love iconoclasts. I love individuals. I love people that are true to themselves, whatever the cost.

I'm fairly competant as a director and actor, but I am Mr. Neurotic as a writer. I just don't have enough confidence in my abilities to take criticism well. I take it personally. Start with 'It's a masterpiece,' and then tell me what you think could be changed.
