I still think photographers should be lashed out at. They should be put in a cage where you can poke them with a stick for a quarter. But not in a hostile way, just for giggles. They really are on the attack against mankind it's a disease. They should be helped somewhere. But I'd still like to poke them with a stick.

Women are the best. The toughest. The bane of my existence. And I'll forever fall for it.

I think that people like the Howard Sterns, the Bill O'Reillys and to a lesser degree the bin Ladens of the world are making a horrible contribution.

I have a regret that the entire discussion [with El Chapo]... ignores its purpose, which was to try to contribute to this discussion about the policy in the War on Drugs.

I can always see light in any situation. It's just the way I'm made.
Sean Penn
Image
I don't see myself as a different guy than I was ten years ago. I don't have aspirations to be. It's really about where you're putting your energies. That's changing a lot.
Sean Penn

On any movie I'm involved with, I say what I think.
Sean Penn
Image
Yeah, I had actually tried to stop acting before I made Dead Man Walking.
