Clint is a man of high integrity, and I know he wants to continue coaching basketball. Hopefully he'll get to fulfill that wish.

I want to be harder to reach, not easier.

I always want to see films that are startling and amazing. Not just shocking. Shocking is easy to do. But startling in the way that makes you change how you think about things. Those are the movies I like the best.

No matter what your sexual preference or gender, no one likes a man who is fussy about his looks. You can spend as much time as you want looking good. But don`t do it in public.

Wealth is walking into any bookshop and buying any book you want without looking at the price tag.

I wish something on T.V. would trouble me. Then maybe I would watch it.
Isn't that the most perverse thing you've ever heard?
