Let me explain something you already know. I'm from Texas and we understand the nature of a border. From what I've seen, vigilant Texans are being ordered to stand down and allow criminals to pass. Mr. President, prepare to see Texans ignoring those orders.
Kindness and politeness are not overrated at all. They're underused.
I think that no matter how much you don't like yourself or the drama of your life you can still find some comedy in it.
Lose the chrome-plated sissy pistol and get yourself a Glock.
I always told my children when they whined... Only the boring are bored.

All my life I've had the privilege to make my living with my imagination, and the most important thing has been to see my creative life grow. I was educated to do that and have lived accordingly.
I don't see people as groups, I see them as individuals.

Human beings are glorious and preposterous characters.
Characters with no integrity are just as interesting as characters with lots of integrity.
No director wants to be directed, but no good director... would shy away from the good ideas of others.
Age will flatten a man.
I'm a believer in belief. Faith is something that works - it causes people to do things, it has results. It's an intangible, indefinable, very real thing. And it moves people, sometimes to atrocity. And sometimes to survival.
The most important question in American cinema, I've learned, is 'When is lunch?'
