You rely too much on brain. The brain is the most overrated organ.

I write the script; nobody sees it, not the people that put the money in the picture. I cast who I want, and make the film. That's why I've always felt the only thing standing between me and greatness, is me. There's no excuse for me not to be great except that I'm not.

In real life, Keaton believes in God. But she also believes that the radio works because there are tiny people inside it.

When you make the film, it's like a chef who works on the meal. After you're working all day in the kitchen and dicing and cutting and putting the sauces on, you don't want to eat it. That's how I always feel about the films. I work on it for a year. I've written it, I've worked with the actors, I've edited, put the music in. I just never want to see it again.

When I was kidnapped, my parents snapped into action. They rented out my room.

I failed to make the chess team because of my height.

Take the money and run.
