I think people have the capacity to be many different things and many seemingly contradictory behaviors.

I'm just terrible. At talking. With words.

Why have a pet hate? Why should it be confined? My hate is both wide ranging and total.

I'm not a terribly social person, and so I have to really like people to work with them.

To be in a video is a ridiculous thing. It's almost impossible to do it without any humour

No. I really don't think I'm cool. I'm not.

As in, I think 'Badlands' is one of the funniest films of all time: "Every day I wish I was carried off to a magical land, but that never happened" is one of the funniest lines in any film.

I only ever privately tell people stuff for the scene. And I often ask what they feel is right. Normally, by the time that we're filming, if it doesn't work, it always the script.

I've always felt that actors in my experience have a very good and accurate instinct about whether something feels right or not. They just have a sense because they have to literally do it.

I'm pretty bad at seeing new films.

The most interesting part of filming is what the actors do. That's the primary link between the story and the audience.

Everything in the society that is wrong is our responsibility to fix.

To whomever swapped my tattoo cream for toothpaste........ well played.

The universal Mind contains all knowledge. It is the potential ultimate of all things. To it, all things are possible.

In every tyrant's heart there springs in the end this poison, that he cannot trust a friend.

The secret of science is to ask the right question, and it is the choice of problem more than anything else that marks the man of genius in the scientific world.

I bring a record home, and it connects with me like nothing else. In my ideal situation, somebody will do that with my record.

While the miser is merely a capitalist gone mad, the capitalist is a rational miser.

I will never be a career actor, I don't think. I don't feel that I have the skill set to jump into it that way, although I wouldn't mind giving it a try.

We can't hold on to anyone or anything, you know. We lose everything except that which we carry within us.
