I'm just some lunatic macaroni mushroom, is that it?

I dyed my hair blonde in that movie, so my head doesn't match my grill.

You don't say hello to Mr. DeNiro? Show the respect, will ya?

I'm just some lunatic macaroni mushroom, is that it?

Did Mad freakin' Max just call me irritating?

Ah, I don't do interviews, really.

I love to star in movies, but I want to have good roles. It doesn't help to get starring roles in something that's no good. I mean, that will just kill you.

I've been married three times, but I'll never forget my first trip as a young man, on my honeymoon, with my new wife.

My father loved me so much that he did not want me to be a laborer or anything. I don't know if it's the right thing to do - push your kids into something and then stay on them until they do it. Let them pick what they want to do.

Scorsese and De Niro taught me to bring out the natural side of myself. And they taught me to think of myself as the average guy. Sometimes the average guy belongs in a role more than your matinee idol-type of person. We have to have people we can relate to.

I'm really good at standup. I always win at standup.

I want to continue to be me and share with people.

Let there be an end to the arrogance of the big powers who miss no opportunity to put the rights of the people in question. Africa's absence from the club of those who have the right to veto is unjust and should be ended.

I'm going to keep pursuing my dream, keep singing and, hopefully, move to L.A.

I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation. War is hell.

Instinct is intelligence incapable of self-consciousness.

We have to say what we believe... whether it's popular or not.

When narcissism is viewed as good; good is viewed as narcissism.

Once in a great while I miss the racing, the feeling of winning. That rush. That adrenaline.

It sounds like a cliche, but it... you do sing about what you know about. And I grew up in a small town, and I grew up in a place where your whole world revolved around friends, family, school, and church, and sports.

If it's accessible by hundreds of millions of people, then it's as mainstream as it gets.

Singles have goals, responsibilities, deadlines, events, and friends that occupy their time, as well they should. Nonetheless, before any goals are achieved, responsibilities are fulfilled, deadlines are met, events are attended or friends are visited, God's purpose should be accomplished.

I feel there should be blacks in every Party.

I had two starts, really. The first was going to the Italia Conti stage school, aged 15. I'd gone to sing, but one day I found myself doing an improvisation and thought, 'Oh God, I quite like this acting thing.' The second start was meeting Mike Leigh when I was 22. He showed me I could play people that weren't like me.

When it comes down to competition, it's not always about the best skater, it's about who skates the best in that competition.

I'm very humbled and honored. I'm very thankful to the Asian-American Community for all their support!

I've always wanted to write an early reader. When I wrote my first novel, my goal was to make it an early reader, but it grew beyond the category.

I think what human beings need is to be able to laugh at the absurd, hold on to ambiguity, and learn to love nuance, instead of making everything one or the other, and structurally, so much of the Internet and online publishing doesn't have room for any of that.

You have to think if weve been visited by extraterrestrial life it was like a zookeeper walking into the chimp enclosure He looks around takes some pictures then leaves without interacting significantly with the environment. Meanwhile the chimps have no idea what the f just happened.

In the north east, there, they have had quite a bit of government offices moving in. It's not a new policy.

The fact is: America's obsession with meat and dairy has pretty much destroyed our sense of taste. The average burger and milkshake meal is so overloaded with fat, salt and sugar that it has numbed our taste buds to virtually anything else.

Convictions are more dangerous foes of truth than lies.

Limit love and you limit life.

I'm grateful for doing those drugs, because they kept me from getting laid and I would have gotten AIDS.
