You see a lot of good ideas or well-written scripts that are bad ideas.

The entertainment is in the presentation.

In a thriller, the camera's an active narrator, or can be.

Thrillers are an enormous amount of fun for filmmakers.

To find a script that works with provocative ideas is hard to find.

The devil is an optimist if he thinks he can make people worse than they are.

Scott, if your life had a face, I would punch it. I would punch your life in the face.

I am the Soul. I am the Light Divine. I am Love. I am Will. I am Fixed Design.

Alas, if our children lose the crown of life, it will be but a small consolation that they have won the laurels of literature or art.

If I never sang on a record again I can still look at my walls. They are covered floor to ceiling with gold and platinum records from all over the world.

I have lots of Scottish blood and know that my family name is Scottish. At my home in the States I have a tartan crest but, unfortunately, I do a terrible Scottish accent.

I hope that, reading 'Rosa,' people will remember their own family and friends and talk about what they did and did not do.

One of my biggest thrills for me still is sitting down with a guitar or a piano and just out of nowhere trying to make a song happen.

It's safe to assume that no matter where you stand, someone would be happy to be in your shoes, just as you'd be happy to be in someone else's.
