I don't think you get to be pope without making some enemies, like you do when you're president.

When I have a day off, I won't spend it at a Hollywood party. I'd rather be at home with paints and a blank canvas.

I'd like to, when it's all said and done, say that I have at least a few stories that I feel proud of.

More often than not, the experience of shooting the movie has been disappointing and the end product has been a mere shadow of what I hoped it would be. But immersing myself in the story - that's what I like best of all.

Saying you are a patriot does not make you one; wearing a flag pin does not in itself mean anything at all.

Adult characters are all the things they've encountered over time. But kids haven't accumulated all the life experience, all the regrets. They tend to be more in the moment, more willing to play, to be joyful.

I don't like people who get into fights about football - or anything else.
