Woody Allen has done some excellent serious movies, too, like Crimes And Misdemeanors. Very overlooked movie, I think, and really his best. And currently I like Big Fish!

I don't know if I'd want to do that anymore, because you always get bigger laughs on college campuses. So, when the film plays in front of a city audience, you've probably cut too loosely.

I believe in justice, maybe not in this life, but there has to be justice. And if there isn't a God, I think it would be very depressing. I'd prefer to believe there is.

Sometimes, if you really want to try something original, you step a little too far out of bounds. I mean, there's a market force that kind of unconsciously keeps you in line a little bit.

I've always thought those guys are really funny. And I love Dumb and Dumber, Kingpin and Mary.

Oh yeah, I believe in God. I think there's much more evidence that there is a God than that there isn't. I don't believe that Mother Theresa and Hitler go to the same place.

I think once we started directing separately - we each have different kinds of interests now, and the kinds of movies we want to do. I wouldn't hold your breath for that one.

I think that came out of watching all those serious movies for all that time. If you watch a movie like Zero Hour, Sterling Hayden is pretty funny, and so are the guys in the cockpit.

I would love to work with Adam Sandler. Because then all I'd have to do is just turn the camera on and off.

Friendship is thinking of the other person first.

One cannot enter a State legislature or a prison for felons without becoming, in some measure, a dubious character.

I appreciate anyone that tries to make this world a better place.

What is my religion? Simple. Kindness.

Allow yourself to release the emotions you have struggled all your life to contain.

Add a few drops of venom to a half truth and you have an absolute truth.

It has always stood for f***ing great food.

When a man opens a car door for his wife, it's either a new car or a new wife. My wife dresses to kill. She cooks the same way.

We all have an unsuspected reserve of strength inside that emerges when life puts us to the test.

Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being
