girl wind people
People always tease me. They say, look at you, you went for so much psychoanalysis and you're so neurotic, you wind up marrying a girl so much younger than you.
love-you important language
The most important words in the English language are not 'I love you' but 'it's benign.'
funny nba cities
Manute Bol is so skinny they save money on road trips. They just fax him from city to city.
grows i-can tumors
I can't express anger. I grow a tumor instead.
mean stories actors
I don't like to meet the actor and have a lot of conferences and talk about their sub-life and their off-screen life and their back stories and all that nonsense, because it never means anything.
cancer giving smoking
I don't inhale because it gives you cancer, but I look so incredibly handsome with a cigarette that I can't not hold one.
baby children looks
The baby is fine. The only problem is that he looks like Edward G. Robinson.
jobs artist sight
As an artist, you are always striving toward an ultimate achievement but never seem to reach it. You shoot a film, and the result could have always been better. You try again, and fail once more. In some ways I find it enjoyable. You never lose sight of your goal. I don’t do my job to make money or to break box office records, I simply try things out. What would happen if I were to achieve perfection at some point? What would I do then?
long able actors
As I got more confident, I was able to let actors improvise, and do long takes. It's 10%, 5% you learn and experience. The rest you just have or you don't have.
morning differences slippers
Yes, but the difference is that when you're dead and somebody yells, 'Everybody up, it's morning,' it's very hard to find your slippers.
people needs sound
This sounds so bleak when I say it, but we need some delusions to keep us going. And the people who successfully delude themselves seem happier than the people who can't.
couple writing mind
With films, I just scribble a couple of notes for a scene. You don't have to do any writing at all, you just have your notes for the scene, which are written with the actors and the camera in mind. The actual script is a necessity for casting and budgeting, but the end product often doesn't bear much resemblance to the script--at least in my case.
soccer thinking games
You are much more dependent on luck than you think. People say if you want to have a good relationship, you have to work at it. But you never hear it about anything you really like, about sailing or going to soccer games.
dying immortality achieve
I prefer to achieve immortality by not dying.
