It was dangerous to hit the wrong kid in my neighborhood, because a lot of the guys I played with had fathers in the Mafia.

I was a sports fan, but I also went to peace marches.

There's nothing more boring than unintelligent actors, because all they have to talk about is themselves and acting. There have to be other things.

What you get is what you get. What you do with what you get, that’s more the point.

I've learned that I need to spell out, even in cases seemingly so blatant, that in fact I am not taking this at face value and am being 'sarcastic.

Man is not himself only...He is all that he sees; all that flows to him from a thousand sources...He is the land, the lift of its mountain lines, the reach of its valleys.

When everything around you is crazy, it is ingenious to stay calm.

And it's hard at the end of the day

My father is a very theatrical and dramatic person.
