When I was a little kid - and even still - I loved magic tricks. When I saw how movies got made - at least had a glimpse when I went on the Universal Studios tour with my grandfather I remember feeling like this was another means by which I could do magic.

Awards were made in Hollywood in whatever the time it was created. They're to promote each other's movies. You give me an award I give you an award and people will believe that we are great movies and they'll go to see them. It's still the same.

Even if we die at 100 we're still dying young. I want at least 700 years. There's a lot of travelling and books to read and movies to see. I'm not going to squeeze it all in in 85 years.

I'll probably pursue doing more movies but not horror or movies with killers in them. I'll try to stick to happy movies. I want to act and direct like Jodie Foster. I admire her because she went to college and she's still doing the same thing.

I'm an actor. And I guess I've done so many movies I've achieved some high visibility. But a star? I guess I still think of myself as kind of a worker ant.

We didn't care if we were well-liked as long as the movies were good. We served the movie - that was our master at Miramax. In our second incarnation the movie is still the master but we're getting the same results in more subtle ways.

When videotape came so a lot of movies that I do have a kind of afterlife in video. Things where movies that I do would come and go they still come and go but you can go rent them and see them on TV.

Movies were never an art form they were entertainment. It just evolved into an art form from there and it's still evolving in different ways.

I think being self-referential is really narcissistic. Who's to say anybody's even thinking of you that much? But some of these movies that I've done people still recite lines to me even 20 years later.

I used to love to go to the movies - I'd see two in a row. A few times I even snuck into the second movie after it started... now that I think about it that's kind of like shoplifting! Needless to say I still love going to the movies but I don't sneak in anymore.

I still like the run and gun action movies and how truly dangerous it can be to make these films.

My wife comes with me on all the movies but she is not an appendage to a film star or anything like that. She is a completely intertwined partner. She is the other half of me. Also we're still very much in love with each other. We always have been we always will be.

The next thing I knew I was out of the service and making movies again. My first picture was called GI Blues. I thought I was still in the army.

My skin is hard when it comes to my music. But with my movies I'm still a virgin in a lot of ways. I'm not used to being shot down for no reason.

Sometimes in movies I still have to be the hero but it's not all that important to me anymore.

Even if you fall on your face you're still moving forward.

I think public service is a calling and you do it as long as the things that brought you into the office can continue getting you up in the morning and as long as there's still work to get done.

I'm still going to do television. I'm just not going to do morning television. I would like to do some things that satisfy interests private interests.

In a still hot morning the tide went out and didn't come back in. This was not a spectacular event. The sea did not roll up like a scroll like the sky in Revelations. It quietly withdrew.

The next morning we saw nothing of the enemy though we were still lying to.

You can be in Tokyo or Alberta at four in the morning in your hotel and you can still practice if you feel like it. A trombone cannot do that at four in the morning.

I'm a morning person because I learned to write my novels while still practicing law. I would get to the office at 6:30 a.m. and write until other people arrived around 9. Now I still do that. I start at 6:30 or 7 and I'll write until 11 then take an hour off then work until about 2 p.m. By then my brain has had enough.

If there was no Black Sabbath I could still possibly be a morning newspaper delivery boy. No fun.

Well you know what? The actor still gets up in the morning if he's still got something to work with you go out there and you do it. Never quit!
