The government can destroy wealth but it cannot create wealth, which is the product of labor and management working with creation.
Here's the thing, you just have to drive a lot faster, and if you don't get there, we're both fired.
My first movie, I got nominated for a Canadian Oscar-for Meatballs. For MEATBALLS. And who am I up against? George C. Scott. So he wins the award and I stand up and go, 'That's it-let's get the hell outta here.'
When you did the job, you thought you were just trying to amuse your friends who are all on the job. I'm just trying to make the sound guy laugh, the script supervisor. A movie like 'Caddyshack', I can walk on a golf course and some guy will be screaming entire scenes at me and expecting me to do it word for word with him. It's like, 'Fella, I did that once. I improvised that scene. I don't remember how it goes'. But I'm charmed by it. I'm not like, 'Hey, knock it off'. It's kind of cool.
Why would you get up there and bore people? I never have figured that out. These people are supposedly in the entertainment industry, and they finally get up there to that podium and they become the most boring people in the world.
Yeah, I think that's sort of the American way. And it's also the Polish way, it turns out.
I think romance basically starts with respect. And new romance always starts with respect. Like the song 'Love the One You're With'; there is something to that. It's not just make love to whomever you're with, it's just love whomever you're with.
I think we're all sort of imprisoned by - or at least bound to - the choices we make... You want to say no at the right time and you want to say 'yes' more sparingly.
You work, you get paid, you drink.
I kinda like this Jay-Z thing, where he's retired, but he keeps doing shows. I think I beat him to that. If you say you're retired, people don't bother you so much, and then if you want to do something, you can do it.
I don't know what my fans are going to think. It's definitely not what they're used to from me.
You want my dark side? Have I ever stolen anything? Not so much intentionally. But I don't think it's so much stealing as... being a part of the flow of the universe. You know, where there's an exchange. It's positive. It's negative. There's an exchange of goods and services
I’ve killed myself so many times, I don’t even exist anymore.
I really don't know what's going to come out of my mouth.
