Someone reminded me I once said, 'Greed is good.' Now it seems it's legal.

Michael Douglas
The one thing that men and women have in common - they both like the company of men.
Michael Douglas
You have to make entertaining movies. But like a good meal, it's nice to have a little food for thought after you walk out of the theater rather than just wiling away a couple of hours.
Michael Douglas
I'm not a big filmophile. I don't watch movies a lot for a hobby. I spend all my time watching sporting events. Because, opposed to movies, you can never tell how they're going to end.
Michael Douglas
