That's the joy of art - it should be dangerous and challenging but it's just art - it's safe.

Acting is very immediate.

I'm going to put a museum on my ranch and people keep saying, "That's a huge idea." Yeah, it's big, but not bigger than the average big movie. A hundred million dollars in the art world is a substantial amount of cash to do anything. That's maybe a big gallery's total sales for a given year.

I saw the horizon. It's out there. And though I may not ever be able to touch it, it's worth reaching for.

My first girlfriend in high school, I had a girlfriend in grade school, but my first girlfriend in high school was Mare Winningham, very fine actress.

If you think that by threatening me you can get me to do what you want... well, that's where you're right. But - and I am only saying this because I care - there's a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market that are just as tasty as the real thing.

I respect people who can do both careers, like Will Smith and a couple of other people who have done it, but I just don't know when they sleep.
