I think we have to act like stars because it is expected of us. So we drive our big cars and live in our smart houses.
Whenever I have bid a hasty goodbye to a loved one, I've always made sure that my record collection was safely stored away in the boot of the car.
The richness of the world, all artificial pleasures, have the taste of sickness and give off a smell of death in the face of certain spiritual possessions.
In New York I pretty much live in diners - I order French Fries, Diet Coke floats and lots of coffee.
In the African-American community, we struggle with a lot of health problems that have a lot to do with our diet.
Nobody now is going from department to another department. Only Walt did that. I was very fond of him, really.
I'm probably the furthest from being romantic that you've ever seen; I'm not even close to being romantic in any way until I have to be.
When I was a child, the temptation to sin was always a romantic option. This romantic option led me to the cinema, a place where sin was welcome.
It's very difficult to have any kind of romantic feelings for a movie where you know exactly what's going to happen in the first five minutes.
When you work with David Lynch, you never know where he's going next and that's exciting. He's like a magician pulling out new tricks.
Inu-Yasha: Is it my imagination, or have you been a little prickly lately? Sango: It's your imagination!
Working with David Lynch was like taking a bullet. A gun at you. 'Lost Highway' is, I think, one of the best films I've ever been in. It'll endure a long, long time.
All real works of art look as though they were done in joy.
Anyone in the humor business isn't thinking clearly if he doesn't surround himself with idea people. Otherwise, you settle for mediocrity - or you burn yourself out.
You can involve yourself in electronics, computers, puzzles... there's a lot of creativity and brain working. There's a lot to model trains that people don't realize.
Computers can bully us. A slow and unreliable system will bring even the toughest soul to their knees as they find themselves completely defenseless against the erratic whims of their rogue machine.
I didn't want there to be a computer on stage. When I see people with computers on stage, I think, 'Are you sending e-mail?' That's so corny.
I am of the very last generation who didn't have computers at school. As we grow old we'll become something of an aberration.
In my iPod, there are many operas, from A to Z. I have 'Aida' and 'Boheme' and 'Butterfly' and 'Cavalleria'. My passion is for opera, but when I'm in the car, I listen to everything.
Some things that I write, you'll see a page with cartoon pictures or a drawing of a car - like a Ford - or a flag. I still do it on an occasion when a word is strange to me.
I look away at car crashes, and I know people who look away at car crashes, because it makes us uncomfortable to watch other people in pain.
