drama way heavy
There's no way around it - drama is very difficult to shoot. It's very heavy and something that you carry with you for the course of the day.
basketball court grew
Where I grew up, the basketball courts were rarely used.
animal wife matter
No matter what anybody says, relationships are based on physical attraction. The first time I saw my wife, it was pure animal whatever.
technology worry village
My only worry about tweeting and modern technology is how it has crept into even the darkest corners of the absolute global village we live in.
dog love-you appreciate
If you want a long-term relationship that doesn't require a lot of work, I say, get a dog. They love you no matter what. But when it comes to humans, there's no secret; you really have to appreciate the person every single day.
boston people clubs
People saying, 'Life didn't turn out the way I wanted it to.' Welcome to the club. I wanted to be the starting center-fielder for the Boston Red Sox, for chrissakes!
jealous long people
I learned a long time ago, if you want to keep your friends in show business, don't get famous. Because as soon as you get famous, a lot of the people you used to know, who didn't, become incredibly bitter and jealous. It's part of the territory.
mean thinking people
Once people start to think they've wasted parts of their life, or they're wasting their life as they speak, that means there's going to be great dramatic and comedic tension.
bills shows
Bill Murray doesn't do anything. He barely shows up at the movies he says he's going to do.
comedian ends gifted
George Carlin was great right up to the end of his life. But Richard Pryor was probably the best, most gifted stand-up comedian who will ever live.
eggs wife kitchen
Charlotte Rampling, when she was younger, looked exactly like my wife. That's one of the reasons that when I first saw my wife, my knees buckled. Based on her looks alone, she was already in my kitchen making eggs.
art stars people
I certainly know guys in comedy, I know some actors, and I definitely know some musicians, who have survived to a certain age and make a good living doing what they do, but nobody knows who they are. They wake up every day and they have the ability to get paid practicing their art, but underneath it all, if you scratched the surface, you still get, "If I only had my own show . . .," or "If I only had my own band . . ." It's what people always do when they want to be their own star.
night thinking long
Elvis and I call up Cadillac dealerships all night long, suckin' down Ny Quil stingers and cheese. He says, what the hell's Lisa Marie thinking with that Michael Jackson crap?
idols stuff watches
I don't watch 'American Idol.' I don't watch any of that stuff.
