Quote

I've got two little girls, I'm not scared about sex. I'll teach them, it's not going to kill them. But what could kill them is violence. Guns, drinking and driving, these are the real dangers in our society.

Everyone hooks up with George Clooney. He's a genuinely cool guy. He's using his powers for good.

Image
We thought sex was free. Sex is not free. There's a price to be paid emotionally, physically, even legally. Sex isn't a casual thing. It's a huge thing.

I introduced myself to Scorsese and I said, If you need someone to do craft services, I'm there.

I was a dog in a past life. Really. I'll be walking down the street and dogs will do a sort of double take. Like, Hey, I know him.

I really love hanging out on the set, and I love the life, and all of that. But I don't think I could stick with this profession if it weren't for those 15 minutes a day when I get to act. That's the part I love. For some strange reason, it's the time that I'm the least self-conscious in my whole life.

So many actors spend so much energy trying to remember the lines. It's so foolish. Guys are the worst.

You should know the lines, be prepared, get sleep, and have the script analyzed so you're ready to rock and roll.

I love making movies, I love the differentness of it, I love writing. But I've always liked television. I grew up on television.

I do love comedy, but I'm not brave enough to tackle a script whose goal is to make you laugh. That's tough. The ones that can do it, I tip my hat off to them, but I don't have that kind of humor or mind.
William H. Macy

So much of the violence in the movies is b.s. violence: A guy in the middle of a large city with 14 people lying on the ground that he's just killed with his superhuman powers, and there's not a cop to be found. Not a siren to be heard. No price to be paid. That's not true, and I don't like that sort of stuff.

At the end of the day, what actors really want to do is act a lot and not wait around in the trailer.

We always want to see people strive and see the human spirit triumph against adversity. That's what it's all about because that's what we're doing. We're trying to triumph in our lives.

We must admit that it is quite common that people do have affairs with their leading ladies and men.

You can skim those stage directions and go right to the dialogue. You can almost read the movie in the same amount of time it will take you to see the movie.

I'm not religious. It's an issue, 'cause I've got two little kids, and I feel you can't grow up without knowledge of religion.

I'm really proud of the writing on Door to Door, and I think that's the Emmy that meant the most - the writing.

Directing is a huge amount of work with very little payoff, and a quarter of the money, and nine times more time spent.

Perhaps there is such a thing as obscene sex, but I know that violence is always obscene. So I don't get it, that you can disembowel a woman but you can't see her tits. Who made that up? That's sick!

I'll tell you this about the Oscars - they're real.
