Jack Nicholson
I've always understood money it's not a big mystical thing to me.
Jack Nicholson
Do you think God knew what he was doing when he created woman?
Jack Nicholson
As an actor, I want to give in to the collaboration with the director because I don't want my work to be all the same. The more this can be done with comfort, the more variety my work has had.
Jack Nicholson
We live, we die, and the wheels on the bus go round and round.
