I've found that if you wear a beret, people think you're either a cabdriver or a producer of dirty movies.

It's time to say goodbye, but I think goodbyes are sad and I'd much rather say hello. Hello to a new adventure.

That other saying, I'm a part of all that I have met, I think that would have to begin with my wonderful parents back in Atlanta when I was a youngster five years old I was tongue tied.

Insane!... Ask the tyrant who is his most dangerous foe, the sane man or the insane?

Happy he whose inward ear Angel comfortings can hear, O'er the rabble's laughter; And, while Hatred's fagots burn, Glimpses through the smoke discern Of the good hereafter.

It's exciting to me that people know that I'm someone who's very political.

You could just do independent movies, but I like bigger kind of studio movies, at least some of them.
