We're allowed to have had a private life before politics in which we make mistakes and do things we should not.

I met a Shanghai photographer who finds these old streets and matches the French names to what they are today. I was able to find my grandfather's block, and just walking the same streets and finding his house was deeply moving. I finally felt connected to China.

Art is based on emotion, but being macho is based on ego; the wall protecting that emotion.

I would love if film doesn't disappear, if we can have film forever so we would have all these brushes, all these possibilities available.

You can count on Errol Flynn, he'll always let you down.

As a parent I provide all I can, but I think in the best possible scenario you need to have a man.

I haven't been to a movie since somebody gave me free tickets to Star Wars, which I went to.

I believe in the separation of church and state, but I do not believe in the separation of politics from religion.

I'm realising now that I can't just blurt things out.

I'm not super, super religious. If this is okay to say, I'm more culturally Jewish.

When I prayed for success, I forgot to ask for sound sleep and good digestion.

Man acts as though he were the shaper and master of language, while in fact language remains the master of man.

You can maybe be artistic and really original and creative, but as long as it's got that funniness at the root of it, then certain people are going to love it just because they need a laugh.

Unemployment insurance is a pre paid vacation for freeloaders.

The voice of flattery affects us after it has ceased just as after a concert men find some agreeable air ringing in their ears to the exclusion of all serious business.

I resent Washington telling states, or the residents of those states, what to do and what to think.

Disney is a place that I've always rooted for, and I think the audience does also because we have a deep, deep love for what that means.

In theory it may seem all right to some, but when it comes to being made the instrument of the Lord's vengeance, I myself don't like it.
