I'm an introvert at heart... And show business - even though I've loved it so much - has always been hard for me.
If something is well-written, it has a chance to be good and if it's not well-written, it will not be good. It could even become popular, but it won't be good.
How often things occur by mere chance which we dared not even hope for.
There's no point in swanning through and being cool as a breeze in every scene. It's not really that interesting. Even if you're a superhero.
My parents have always been cool. They even became surrogates to friends of mine who didn't have such supportive parents.
Any leader needs to be constantly interested in what's going on in the world, and constantly ready - even when things are going well - to change.
A visit to a cinema is a little outing in itself. It breaks the monotony of an afternoon or evening; it gives a change from the surroundings of home, however pleasant.
Especially for my father it was a great change. He used to be a socialist and even a member of the socialist party. But then he became an orthodox Jew.
Fascism in Uruguay did not begin just with the military coup of 1973, but years before, even when there was still a government with a constitution and parliament.
I'm on a health kick! I'm drawn to cheeseburgers, so I've got to just try and keep it on an even keel.
As the summer moves on, there are Saturday nights when I come home and find friends I haven't even been out with sitting up in the hot tub.
After a really hectic week, I hate going out on a Friday evening, so I'll always opt for a night at home.
I was the most Australian child ever in the world, even though my home was in Africa.
I was rejected by casting directors during the day. I attended class in the evening, then rode 90 miles on the train home.
I lived at home and I cycled every morning to the railway station to travel by train to Johannesburg followed by a walk to the University, carrying sandwiches for my lunch and returning in the evening the same way.
Even in the busiest kitchen, there's always a point at the end of the day when you go home.
Too many books are full of recipes that aren't doable at home. They are purely aspirational. They are quite frightening, even for me.
I set records that will never be equaled. In fact, I hope 90% of them don't even get printed.
Even if I went off to some other career, I hope I would still be doing Coen films.
I try to give people hope. Even though life is bleak, there's hope out there.
The surest way to get a thing in this life is to be prepared for doing without it, to the exclusion even of hope.
