I don't think Christmas is necessarily about things. It's about being good to one another, it's about the Christian ethic, it's about kindness.
It's very good to get through them (drugs) while you're still young and then talk about how great or bad it was for the rest of your life.
I am a spy in the house of me. I report back from the front lines of the battle that is me. I am somewhat nonplused by the event that is my life.
He doesn't move his face when he talks. His eyes are like shark eyes. Dead.
Females get hired along procreative lines. After 40, we're kind of cooked.
Anything you can do in excess for the wrong reasons is exciting to me.

The only one who didn't know was George Lucas. We kept it from him, because we wanted to see what his face looked like when it changed expression--and he fooled us even then. He got Industrial Light and Magic to change his facial expressions for him and THX sound to make the noise of a face-changing expression.
I envy people who have the capacity to sit with another human being and find them endlessly interesting, I would rather watch TV. Of course this becomes eventually known to the other person.
