For me, it was the challenge of doing a movie that is in one location. Usually, there are a few scripts obviously always going around with stories that happen in one location.

When you make a thriller/horror, darkness is [your] friend, because it lets the imagination go wild and what not. So you always end up going into darkness.

Camera's are cheap. It's the lenses that are expensive.

Obviously in the close-ups we bring extras around or we do it later, but them running in and the big shots, they don't know. They're just coming out.

You know how hard it is to swim take after take and perform the next day swimming again? Me, I'm a terrible swimmer, but most actors with that tight schedule would be sick pretty quick.

If you do any thriller or horror movie a big part of the process is accounting for the cell phone.

He that is overcautious will accomplish little.

The life of the law has not been logic: it has been experience.

It was young people who stubbornly insisted on justice, stubbornly refused to accept the world as it is that transformed not just the country but transformed the world.

If things are too perfect, people are always so afraid that it's going to change, so they ruin it themselves.

Give up the belief that mind is, even temporarily, compressed within the skull, and you will quickly become more manly or womanly. You will understand yourself and your Maker better than before.

Render more service than you are paid for and eventually you will be paid more for less services rendered.

I don't get on stage and give a social diatribe. I am a performer and an entertainer.

People know where romantic comedies are going. It's not brain surgery to figure out the end of a romantic comedy.
