People keep trying to make me a movie star but they just don't understand. I'm not a movie star, I'm an actor.

I have three sisters and I've always wanted a brother, so I was really interested in that notion.

Tarantino's stuff in its inception was all about finding a way for him to break into Hollywood.

My first film goes into production in October. It's called White Boy Shuffle and it's based on a novel about a young black kid and it's sort of reminiscent of Catcher in the Rye.

The ultimate 20-year plan is to be living in the Caribbean, writing, living off the land, eating from the ocean and probably smoking herb.

Where you raise your children isn't as important as how you raise your children.

The idea of doing something that you've seen a thousand times before doesn't appeal to me.

It's nice that people want to compliment you in some superficial way, but I've never considered that that's how I might be categorized. I guess it's better than being called ugly.

My sisters are my favorite people on earth.

A film goes through so many hands, that by the time it's done, it might not resemble what you thought you were making.

Granted, there are times when, for business reasons, you do something that's more mainstream. But even then, I try to find something that has a dark or subversive aspect.

Nobody was ever meant to remember or invent what he did with every cent.

With the touch of wisdom, comes the end of fears.

Personality is everything in art and poetry.

We were like deaf people trying to dance to a beat we couldn't hear, long after the music actually stopped.

We make men without chests and expect from them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst.

I'm allergic to coming in second but I never sneeze.

I always thought I should base how good I am on how good I feel I am.

That hour o' night's black arch the keystane.

Don’t worry about it. We’re used to being told to go screw ourselves. And that’s from the people who actually like us. You should hear what our enemies say. (Nykyrian)

I don't do anything in order to cause trouble. It just so happens that what I do naturally causes trouble. I'm proud to be a troublemaker.
