I think filmmakers, in general... There are some awesome, really great filmmakers - but on the whole, filmmakers, actors, I think they are the biggest bunch of whiny, over-paid babies on the planet.

Much of my youth was spent in the parking lot or inside a Dunkin' Donuts.

I've always dreamed of having a year-round haunted house.

You know, I'm from Boston, and in Boston, you are born with a baseball bat in your hand.

The scariest people are usually the sweetest.

Life is a series of avoiding horrible situations until ultimately you're dead. That's how I feel about things.

'Hostel' is that's how I feel about what's going on in Iraq. There's people that just want money and people are being sacrificed for it.

I've always been fascinated by the idea that there's no such thing as evil; it's all in your point of view. To one group a suicide bomber is the antichrist and to one he's a hero.

Anytime you're the first to speak out against something, there's going to be a backlash.

What is important to me is that people know I respect the business of making movies.

I have no tattoos. There's nothing I've even been that into to get a tattoo of it.

We can't change what is coming. Something is always coming.

The moral of this story is that no matter how much we try, no matter how much we want it ... some stories just don't have a happy ending.

I don't like to talk about myself that much.

I bought a little hideaway up north, so I'll ship my motorcycle up there. It's much less dangerous than West Hollywood.

Roving dogs do not indicate the civilisation or compassion of the society. They betray on the country the ignorance and lethargy of its members.

If I can play a little part in the world's healing, and making it a better place than when I came, then I just thank God for that chance.

I think my kids give mommy more attention than they give me.
