I've never actually played a Zelda game. I've played other N64 games, like Goldeneye, Mario Kart, they were my favourites.

I never wanted to be the annoying kid on set.

Music's another big love of mine.

I once worked with Emma Thompsons mother, Phyllida Law. I worked with her on a BBC drama, and she was hilarious. I loved her so much, and she was great to work with.

I'm not a fan of musicals at all, but I do think 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' is a very good. I always thought 'Walk the Line' was very good, too.

The best way to create a better future is to do your best at this very moment.

I've experienced great things, I've experienced great tragedies. I've done almost everything I could possibly ever imagine doing, but I just know that there's more.

Stories were primarily verbal to begin with. Before there were cave paintings, stories were told over generations. We tell each other thousands of stories in the course of everyday life.

I would rate the fact that I get to be alive a big beautiful 10. Satisfaction with myself - work in progress.

Ancient art was the tyrant of Egypt, the mistress of Greece and the servant of Rome.

I'm deadly serious even when I play tennis against my kids. I want to beat their brains out.

Conventional nudes based on classical originals could bear no burden of thought or inner life without losing their formal completeness.

Any form of government, not just Capitalism, is whatever people who have all our money, drunk or sober, sane or insane, decide to do today.

I think it's important to do smaller films because I think that's where a lot of new things are happening.

Life is a sexy little dance and I like to take the lead.
