The pressures having grown up in this business can be really rough. And it is a testament to you that you have remained focused and NOT lost your mind.

I go through a whole process with the actors first, building and creating characters, then I encourage them to sort of live in that character when they're in the screen.

We do nods to Charlie's Angels and Mission Impossible because they are popular with our fan base.

I prefer the smaller budget versus the bigger budget because the mentality that goes along with big budget filmmaking doesn't really suit me; the mind-set that money is the answer.

Creativity is the answer. I always prefer the creative solution to an expensive solution.

I'm just calm under fire. I'm not intimidating at all.

Comedy has a responsibility to be a voice of society, so within that, there's always going to be those that talk about those subjects and things that are going on in the world.

All I need is a camera and I'll make things happen

There are two phases to a movie. First you shoot the movie, and then you make the movie. Generally, post-production is longer than filming.

I put heavy emphasis on the characters.

You never really know until you put the movie in front of an audience. I am a big advocate of screenings, which are getting harder and harder to do nowadays.

The future belongs to those who learn from the past and live brilliantly in the present moment.

It's hard to get a hug wrong.

We may be personally defeated, but our principles never!

The things that matter most are not things.

My balance is really bad. I just hope my clumsiness doesn't show through.

I dont want to repeat my mistakes.

If you are negotiating you must do so in a spirit of reconciliation, not from the point of view of issuing ultimatums.

The happiest pillow on which you may rest your head is the knowledge of God's will. I cannot imagine a more miserable situation than consciously to be out of God's will.

Nature sometimes contrives to disconcert by reflecting the image of our creation.

Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.
