I've never committed to a role without a script.

When I was very young I wanted to be a professional horseback rider. Then I wanted to be a pop singer. Then I wanted to be a psychiatrist. Then I wanted to be a movie director.

I don't see it as a form of healing, because if you have wounds that are bleeding I don't think acting will ever get them to stop. But I find acting is a form of illumination.

It's a very difficult thing for people to accept, seeing women act out anger on the screen. We're more accustomed to seeing men expressing rage and women crying.

I just want to tell stories that have an impact on people. Somebody needs to have an impact because people are lost. People are really lost.

I've made some great movies. 'Risky Business' still stands up. It's timeless. They study that film in film school.

I have this very strange sensitive skin. If I put anything on it but this one product, it erupts into a rash.

I've never had a manager, and I've had various agents, and, fortunately or unfortunately, I've been blessed.

My dream was always to be on the cover of 'Sports Illustrated.'

I'm my own person, and I want people to know me for who I am.

I am sure of the fact that Fidel and Chávez are commanders of the forces of freedom in America, to liberate America and the world.

If you know it, but you're not living it, you don't own it.

The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness cannot understand it
