I am Jack's smirking revenge.

Our generation has had no Great Depression, no Great War. Our war is spiritual. Our depression is our lives.

The one you love and the one who loves you are never, ever the same person.

We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will.

Worker bees can leave. Even drones can fly away. The Queen is their slave.

Did perpetual happiness in the Garden of Eden maybe get so boring that eating the apple was justified?

You know, the condom is the glass slipper of our generation. You slip it on when you meet a stranger. You dance all night, then you throw it away.

If you love something set it free, but don't be surprised if it comes back with herpes.

Nothing of me is original. I am the combined effort of everyone I've ever known.

The trick to forgetting the big picture is to look at everything close-up.

It's so hard to forget pain, but it's even harder to remember sweetness. We have no scar to show for happiness. We learn so little from peace.

Is this how it is for a species that senses it is going extinct? Is there a feeling of loneliness, or unease, each morning, upon awakening?

I was a lawyer for about ten years. The law teaches one to see things from all different angles.

I didn't even know my bra size until I made a movie.

All of those measures of relationships that you have in your life help feed your and inform your ability to act.

It's not easy for you, Dad You seek your own space You slope off to watch telly But still see (Mom's Mum's Mam's) face

My job is to bring out in people what they wouldn't dare do themselves.

I do think I learned to accept myself through the eyes of others when I was young because I wasn't brought up to think that I was beautiful or told I was beautiful.

All people have religions. It's like we have religion receptors built into our brain cells, or something, and we'll latch onto anything that'll fill that niche for us.

Nothing I did where the only reason for doing it was the money was ever worth it, except as bitter experience.

It could be construed that the reason I wouldn't wish to live in England is the immigration explosion. And that's not true at all.
