Quite often - a lot of the work I had done had been extensively with women. Most especially in the theater, but also quite often in the movies. That has its own delights, and maybe pitfalls too.
The projects I look for to produce or direct would not be ones in which I would want to act.
I'm more boring and more conservative.
I'm not a control maniac.
I was never a fanatical movie person.
I grew tired of religion some time not long after birth. I believe in people, I believe in humans, I believe in a car, but I don't believe something I can't have absolutely no evidence of for millenniums. And it's funny, people think analysis or psychiatry is mad, and they go to church.
I don't wake up drenched in sweat because I haven't been on stage in years.
I don't have a saviour or a royal family.
I don't really have a comprehension of being a public figure.
I'm not a psychiatrist. I'm not treating patients.
I like very much to do movies.
I'm a little bit of a fabric lunatic.
I think with actors, if you just don't set about trying to crush their confidence immediately, you're usually OK.
I don't remember my life before I had children.
I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
I like to direct movies, but I don't like to goof around for eight years talking about it.
I was a very good baseball player and football player as a kid, but my father always told me - occasionally while striking me - that I was much more interested in how I looked playing baseball or football than in actually playing. And I think there's great truth in that.
Politics is not really my thing.
A dog that has rabies probably will do things it wouldn't do if it didn't have rabies. But that doesn't change the fact that it has rabies.
Sigmund Freud said we act out our own dreams, but if you are only an actor you are not acting out your own dream. You are simply participating in someone else's dream.
Utopia means elsewhere.
I don't want a trillion-dollar empire to run.
You have to do things people see or you don't get to do anything.
I'm supposed to be a pretty good theater actor.
You can't take a play someone has directed and do whatever you want with it.
