I'm really interested in having a studio one day and being a filmmaker.

I have three sisters and I've always wanted a brother, so I was really interested in that notion.

Tarantino's stuff in its inception was all about finding a way for him to break into Hollywood.

My first film goes into production in October. It's called White Boy Shuffle and it's based on a novel about a young black kid and it's sort of reminiscent of Catcher in the Rye.

The ultimate 20-year plan is to be living in the Caribbean, writing, living off the land, eating from the ocean and probably smoking herb.

Where you raise your children isn't as important as how you raise your children.

The idea of doing something that you've seen a thousand times before doesn't appeal to me.

It's nice that people want to compliment you in some superficial way, but I've never considered that that's how I might be categorized. I guess it's better than being called ugly.

My sisters are my favorite people on earth.

A film goes through so many hands, that by the time it's done, it might not resemble what you thought you were making.

Resentment can be intoxicating in a way in which a drunk starts to believe he’s stronger than he is.

They suppress the truth rather than take the consequence of telling it, and in so doing prove themselves a part of the human family.

Entrails. No hissing. This is the closest we will ever come to love.

The most unhappy of all men is he who believes himself to be so.

The balance of trade is an article of faith.

If you had to pick between one or the other, I can't say which one is better; but I would certainly say, in my orientation, the light of samadhi is all-pervasive. Samadhi will free you.

Only a true faith that applies God’s Word to everything-incl uding economics-will lead to the revival and reformation our culture needs so badly.

My mother played a little bit of the old time clawhammer. She tuned the banjo up and picked one tune for me, and it just become natural to me. When she picked it, I just started and picked it, too.

I don't believe in outing people. It's up to the individual, but there's nothing wrong putting the pressure on.

Physical conditioning from regular exercise is important. And we can do so much more to keep our bodies strong.
