I can be fairly optimistic, but I'm probably more a realist, I think. I mean, optimism's an interesting quality, isn't it, because I'm always slightly dubious as to what's behind it?

I grew up doing musicals. I've done so many musicals in my life, I kind of got them out of my system. But, I certainly would be open to them. Rocky Horror Show is a big favorite of mine.

I tend to project my father figure onto any director that I'm working with, or mother, if I'm working with a female, or it can be confused.

The thrill of coming home has never changed.

My problem is I'm an addictive personality. I can't have one coffee. I can't eat one piece of chocolate. I can't have a little bit of drugs.

There's many more films being made in America than there are in Australia. You make four hundred and fifty films a year, we make twenty-five.

Science without conscience is the soul's perdition.

Stuck in a generation where loyalty is just a tattoo, love is just a quote and lying is the new truth.

I hear, "Yes, Let us more education invest!"Whilst destitute, Outside their gates doth rest, Women, children, and men, Poor and a hungered!Odd that colleges fill, Yet mercy is numbered.

I never thought it was fair that anatomy decided what my brain was fit for.

Life is the only real counselor. Wisdom unfiltered through personal experience does not become a part of the moral tissue.

In the world of the celebrity, the hierarchy of publicity has replaced the hierarchy of descent and even of great wealth.

Whatever is on your plate got there because you said yes to it.

He that loseth his honesty hath nothing else to lose.

Choose to give your creative art priority over other things. You can do it.

Yeah, I think it's like any God-given gift. You writers have the gift of perception. If you don't use it, you're going to lose it. And it's the same thing with you [Lorraine], it's God-given.
