You're never going to catch me calling myself a hero unless I'm joking.

If I fell down and hurt myself, I never cried. There was no one to hear me.

I don't know what it is about me, but I don't think of myself as sexy; I never have.

I'm never satisfied with anything. It can make things hard for myself, but it also pushes me.

I never really address myself to any image anybody has of me. That's like fighting with ghosts.

I never thought of myself as a comedian. That is a label - make me laugh. I want to make you think.

I have never truly applied myself. Lots of things have come too easily to me and at too high a level.

I've never gone out and courted favors. I've never gone out to be booed, either. It's just me being myself.

Frankly, I would never ask a supporter to bet big on me if I wouldn't bet big on myself. It wouldn't be fair.

I'm never sure who I'm writing for, or who's reading me, but I definitely see myself in conspiracy with my readers.

I've never been able to arouse any interest in myself for digitally produced sound, and so the computer turns me off.

I never truly got to know my grandfather before he passed away, but he inspires me to search more deeply to understand myself.

The act of writing is a kind of catharsis, a liberation, but I never really concerned myself with that. I write because it interests me.

I try not to diet because it never really works for me, if I tell myself I can't eat something then I tend to want to eat everything in sight.

Often, when I finish a film, I'll have that feeling inside me: 'I never want to do this ever again. I don't want to pretend anymore. I want to be myself and do that.'

Though I have never thought of myself as a book collector, there are shelves in our house browsed so often, on so many rainy winter nights, that the contents have seeped into me as if by osmosis.

The difficulty for me is that I'm interested in so many different things. I could never really imagine myself doing one thing, and I'm pretty sure that I'll end up doing four or five different things.

I was 19, 20. I didn't know what to do. I knew one thing: I never saw myself on TV or anyone like me, and I wanted to be that for someone else. I think the most courageous thing I did was ask for help.

Directing seems like a logical progression for me, although I would never put myself in a film of mine. How can you? Putting on make-up while you're trying to concentrate on setting up the next shot? No, no.

I had to keep myself in check. Like, 'Whoa, whoa, whoa.' I'd never sat in a room, five feet away from a Klansman putting on his damn robe. That's what freaked me out a little bit. But I wanted to see a Klansman.

I didn't comment on any actress, and I have never compared myself with any senior actresses. Moreover, I have said many times that I have learnt a lot from my seniors. Don't spread rumours and false news about me.

I worked with someone who told me they'd never like me. But for some reason, I just felt like I needed her approval. So I started changing myself to please her. It made me stop being social and friendly. I was so unhappy.

It's been a while since I've written a novel aimed at the adult market, but I never sit down and say to myself, 'Okay, now I'm going to write something for us old folks.' I get gripped by an idea, and I go where the idea takes me.

I think, for me, the goal was never really for my EPs to go mainstream. I think the intention of them was to create a little bit of buzz and to show my musicality because I wrote and produced the EPs myself. The goal was to experiment, with no rules.
