It's nice to know that if you've worked really hard at something, it gets recognised with a tick in the success column - however you define that, be it making a bunch of dough, which the actors never see much of, or whether it's a piece that's enlightening or stays with the audience maybe six, seven or even eight or 10 years later.
I wish I could have 25,000 years of my personal family history documented in a very powerful computer or a CD-ROM that I could just pop in and my computer would never crash
Embrace your dorkdom or rail against it. The choice is yours.
I was molded, spent my time underneath a lot of goo. And then the bits and pieces were sculpted. It took probably 10 days to create each character after all those camera tests.
Burroughs was never really that pleased with the way popular culture and society treated his character. He tried to make a few movies of his own as a result, but they weren't very good.
I remember thinking, I want to work for the camera.
To swing or not to swing? Swing.
I wish I could go home. I've been on the road since May. I wonder if my dogs still remember me
Maybe my caveman ancestors invented the wheel or something. I'm not sure.
Careers go in cycles. I've plateau-ed. I've been at the bottom of the ocean... You win some, you lose some...
Most people go, I wish for world peace. But chaos has a place in balancing out the light and the dark in the world. I don't know if I would wish for world peace.
I guess darkness serves a purpose: to show us that there is redemption through chaos. I believe in that. I think that's the basis of Greek mythology.
I don't believe that wishing works. I think we get the things we work for.
As a young man I prayed for success. Now I just pray to be worthy of it.
