I got a divorce because my ex-wife left me for another woman.

You always think another time would have been ideal for you . . . the reality is there was no novocaine when you went to the dentist.

It's a match made in heaven...by a retarded angel.

I don't believe in an afterlife, but I'm taking an extra pair of underwear just in case.

Life is short. Short, and not about anything except what you can touch and what touches you.

Real life is generally much duller and inevitably sadder, most of the time. In film, you control everything that's going on, so you can indulge the most fantastic, romantic, escapist feelings and fantasies. You can do anything you want. That's why it's very seductive and pleasurable to earn your living making movies because you're not living in the real world.

The man who said 'I'd rather be lucky than good' saw deeply into life. People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck. It's scary to think so much is out of one's control. There are moments in a match when the ball hits the top of the net and for a split second it can either go forward or fall back. With a little luck it goes forward and you win. Or maybe it doesn't and you lose.
