I see myself as a roving mosquito, choosing it's target.

A fan club is a group of people who tell an actor he's not alone in the way he feels about himself.

We know grooming is important for people. To get their hair done, to get makeup and things like that - that makes a person feel better.

People need to be peppered or even outraged occasionally. Our national comedy and drama is packed with earthy familiarity and honest vulgarity. Clean vulgarity can be very shocking and that, in my view, gives greater involvement.

The nice thing about quotes is that they give us a nodding acquaintance with the originator which is often socially impressive.

I found that if I got up on the stage to entertain the troops I could make them shut up and look.

It was Noel Coward whose technique I envied and tried to emulate. I collected all his records and writing.

No matter the situation don't let your emotions overpower your intelligence.

Italian is the language of song. German is good for philosophy and English for poetry. French is best at precision; it has a rigour to it.

I've created a bridge between European electronic culture and urban American culture, and I've worked with established brands.

There is the odd exception, like Albert Einstein, but as a breed, scientists tend not be very good at presenting themselves.

Elephants are not human, of course. They are something much more ancient and primordial, living on a different plane of existence. Long before we arrived on the scene, they worked out a way of being in the world that has not fundamentally changed and is sustainable, and not predatory or destructive.

If I can have the opportunity to go into an editing room, it's like the golden ticket for me. All I want is to learn about everything else in the filmmaking process. I just directed a music video which just came out and that'd sort of be the area of the field that I'm going to move into, I hope.

The music business inspires designers, and designers inspire the music business.

A baby is an inestimable blessing and bother.

I've done movies with Oliver Stone and Michael Mann. And I've done quite a few dramas in my time, from the theatre to film work.

I don't think my parents would have let me go straight into acting full time when I was 12. I do like to have balance, naturally, as an individual.

In India, it's hard not to have Gandhi as a hero. To give up everything - including power and money - and to live for his countrymen, that beats everything else. He's a role model of selflessness.

Obviously I am not the young man who came to Hollywood in 1946.

In the Seventies, we still had dreams and hopes of Utopia, but by the end of the decade, the world had shifted to the right.

Dolphins are not automatic air breathers like we are. Every breath is a conscious effort. If life becomes too unbearable the dolphins just take a breath and they sink to the bottom. They dont take the next breath.
