Being the son of a filmmaker, you are aware of a career as a director. You don't think of it as just movies, but as a life.

I would love to put out music that was just stunning or soul-baring or whatever. But I don't think I have the voice for it.

you've always been living on prospects; for my part, I'd rather have a mole-hill in possession than a mountain in prospect.

I had a TV set and a typewriter and that made me think a computer should be laid out like a typewriter with a video screen.

I actually don't meet very many men because they are, I guess, afraid to approach me or think that I'm from another planet.

You might get some serial killers who are born with a chip missing, but for the most part I don't think anyone is born bad.

I do think British and American politics rhyme. They go in cycles. They go in Thatcher-Reagan cycles, Blair-Clinton cycles.

To think, and to feel, constitute the two grand divisions of men of genius-the men of reasoning and the men of imagination.
