To be in this business and have tremendous integrity and only make distinguished choices is very tough.
Never go with a hippie to a second location.
Ultraconservatism is, to me, so illogical. Everywhere you go, conservatives want to cut, cut, cut, cut - cut money for powerless people. So, that's the biggest problem I have with them.
Anderson Cooper has a job to do. And that job is to try to reinforce his credibility in the gay community after the fact that you couldn’t get him out of the closet for 10 years with a canister of tear gas. Now he’s the sheriff; now he’s running around writing everybody a ticket!
Most women in leading roles are very boyish looking. The one girl working right now who I think is a real beauty in a classic sense - the only real 12-cylinder engine - is Catherine Zeta-Jones.
I think my exact comment was that if Bush won it would be a good time to leave the United States. I'm not necessarily going to leave the United States.
The leadership class of the Republican Party is a conservative Christian loony bin. The leadership of the Republican Party are a bunch of sociopathic maniacs who have their lips super-glued to the ass of the conservative right.
I'm not an awards-driven person in anything. Anytime you do get caught up in that, you usually end up getting whacked.
If you do get married, get a prenup. It's not about money at all. It's about having a document that states how you'll dissolve your marriage while you still have a shred of respect for each other.
In the film business, when you're young, you just want to work. But when you're older, it has more to do with who's involved with the project - who you're going to get in the boat with.
All those animals live a pretty dreary life, then they get chopped up and put on a griddle.
You can be someone running...who is just a soaring leader of people. But if you don't have the finances down, you're going to have a problem.
When I get onstage in a play, I feel very safe, very protected, very fulfilled.
I was very competitive with my brothers when I was younger. Now we are all in completely different worlds. Im not in direct competition with my brothers for anything, ever. Stephen and I and Billy and I are better at staying in touch with each other. Danny is married, he has a new baby and he is very peripatetic, he goes to golfing tournaments and charity things. He really travels a lot.
You can tell Gov. Bush to rest assured that I'm not going to leave the country because we have to get him out of office and we have to get his brother out of office in 2004. We're not resting until we get that done.
Denzel Washington's career is an enormous luxury. Compare him to Wesley Snipes.
Rolling torture wagons for nature's most dignified creature.
I feel I'm two people: I have my interest in acting and I have a lot of other political interests I'd like to pursue.
When you're with someone, you want everything to be great. And that's the pressure that you put on, and what you just can't do.
I think I'm just like a lot of people who had nothing.
I think the older I've gotten the more, like most people, my appreciation shifts towards things that are very difficult, where you see people who have put in tremendous hours and hours of commitment.
When I am sitting home, and I am happy and I have my TV show and I don't need to work and I'm married now and I like to be in line by my pool with my yoga instructor wife and eating fruit and taking in the sun, then life is good.
One generation might like you, then 15 years later the next is responding to somebody else.
I just love Rome. It really does cast a spell on you.
[American family court] is a system that is corrupt on his best day. It is like being tied to the back of a pickup truck and dragged down a gravel late at night. No one can hear your cries and complaints and it is not over until they say it's over.
