I Don't Have Any Regrets.

At The End Of The Day, Audiences Just Want To Laugh And Be Entertained. They Want To Escape From Their Reality, And That's Why We Make Movies, To Get People To Escape From The Realities.

I Ask My Assistants If They're Retarded All The Time. When The Camera Is On You, Of Course, Actors Have The Ability To Make It Real. For Me, If I'm Not Talking, It Is A Problem. I Have So Much More Respect For Actors After Being In Front Of The Camera, And I Realize That The Hardest Part Is When You're Not Talking. Listening Is Harder Than Just Acting. Listening Is The Hardest Part.

Less Money Sometimes Allows You To Be More Creative.

Do I Have A Small Movie In Me? Yeah, Probably, When I'm 60. But I'm Not Hal Ashby, I'm Not Roman Polanski. I'm True To Myself. Whether You Like It Or Not.

Everyone Who Knows Me Knows That I Don't Have A Prejudiced Bone In My Body.
