I do like to walk a lot. Mostly in New York. When I'm going somewhere, I'd rather just walk there.
Girls do not dress for boys. They dress for themselves and, of course, each other. If girls dressed for boys they’d just walk around naked at all times.
I just want people to take a step back, take a deep breath and actually look at something with a different perspective. But most people will never do that.
I'm trying to tell a story, to entertain. I try and do something that might just take people's minds off their troubles.
Nerd rage to me is kind of just empty rage. I mean, ultimately, you're not going to do it; you're not going to fight somebody, you know.
But I'm a historian. I wasn't interested in just being a producer, I was interested in doing research and presenting that research to a general public.
I would really, really, really like to be a legend like Madonna. Madonna knows what to do next, and when she's performing, the audience is just in awe of her.
The only genre I have any problem with is musicals, but that's just my own tastes it's nothing to do with the films.
I'm always shy in front of an audience, so I'm always at the back, in the shadows, just doing it. I don't like the front, the adulation.
But the throat just kind of falls into line once you realize in your head what it is. You got to remember the musicality of a character you're going to do.
It doesn't really matter to me how I make a difference, I just wanna make sure that I do.
Why would I lose sleep when I really need valuable sleep just to recuperate and come back and do my job?
I directed an episode of Touched by an Angel a couple of months ago, and I will be doing more of that. I just like to keep a bit of variety going; it keeps things interesting.
I just think everything we do has an unintended consequence. We take out Saddam Hussein in Iraq, and Iraq was the check against Iran.
I still write the occasional short story, and poked at a novel once, but it's just not what I want to do.
Doing that hunt scene was really quite demanding. I actually broke a rib during that scene. And then all the scenes after that became quite challenging, just breathing and laughing.
When you're young, you don't feel iconoclastic - you're just kind of doing what seems natural, what moves you.
I just kind of assumed that you do a movie and then you leave and you hop onto the next thing. I never thought that people are actually buddies.
I do smaller films, I'm not getting big paydays. I feel like we're just kind of scraping together here.
Luckily, I'm a governor - so I get to tell you what I've already done not just what I'm going to do.
I don't believe in just ordering people to do things. You have to sort of grab an oar and row with them.
