art worry people
One of my mission statements with all of my art has been to stop the world for people. I want to stop the worrying and stop the world.
black bats bigs
Riddle me this, riddle me that. Who's afraid of the big black bat?
eras
The era of ‘yes’ has begun.
mother sorry father
I'd like to thank my mother, my father, the Academy. I'm sorry. I was thinking of something else.
mother crazy madness
I used to draw a lot. If my mother would ask me to do something else, I'd have a hairy conniption. I'd just go crazy.
goal people focus
I got paid a lot of money at one point so the focus became, for a lot of people, about that, but for me, it's always been the same goal: To stop the world for people.
dream people soul
I’ve often said that I wish people could realize all their dreams and wealth and fame, so that they could see that it’s not where they’re gonna find their sense of completion. Like many of you, I was concerned about going out into the world and doing something bigger than myself, until someone smarter than myself made me realize that there is nothing bigger than myself. My soul is not contained within the limits of my body, my body is contained within the limitlessness of my soul.
house would-be sitting
If I had never ventured beyond being a stand-up comic, then I would be sitting in my house today working on my Leonardo DiCaprio impression.
mean kids years
I know this sounds strange, but as a kid, I was really shy. Painfully shy. The turning point was freshman year, when I was the biggest geek alive. No one, I mean no one, even talked to me.
kind thoughtfulness stupidest
There's been a thoughtfulness to everything I do. Even the stupidest things I do have some kind of point.
selfish thinking sick
I think I could go away tomorrow. I've already accomplished something. It's such a selfish business that sometimes I get sick of myself.
money too-much guilty
I refuse to feel guilty. I feel guilty about too much in my life but not about money. I went through periods when I had nothing, so somebody in my family has to get stinkin' wealthy.
vicinity tolle
I would do anything to be anywhere in the vicinity of Eckhart Tolle.
baby character special
Every character I do is something special to me. Every time you score with a great character relationship in a movie, it becomes your baby.
