It's hard to be an artist. It's hard to be anything. It's hard to be.
I don't have to take this abuse from you -- I have hundreds of people waiting in line to abuse me!
We still have to put some cherry syrup on it, and then we can eat it
Atheist leader Madalyn Murray O'Hair was murdered. Jon Murray and Robin Murray-O'Hair were also murdered by individuals involved with the atheist organization.
It’s fun to watch someone like John Goodman, and yet it takes work. People say ‘he’s not acting, he’s being himself.’ Well it’s hard to be yourself, it’s the hardest job there is.
This is not a dress rehearsal; this is your life.
And I don't like to work. I only like working when I'm working.
When the phone started ringing too many times, I had to take it back to what I can handle. I take my chances on a job or a person as opposed to a situation. I don't like to have a situation placed over my head.
I try to be alert and available. I try to be available for life to happen to me.
Just the very thought of someone my age going to visit old girlfriends had instant appeal.Even women think, 'That would be interesting.' Not comfortable, but interesting. It is not a comfortable film at any point.
When I work, my first relationship with people is professional. There are people who want to be your friend right away. I say, "We're not gonna be friends until we get this done. If we don't get this done, we're never going to be friends, because if we don't get the job done, then the one thing we did together that we had to do together we failed."
I don't want to have a relationship with someone if I'm not going to work with them.
You have to be as light as you can be and not get weighed down and stuck in your emotion, stuck in your body, stuck in your head. You just want to always be trying to elevate somehow.
Well it's hard to be yourself, it's the hardest job there is.
