I Don't Want To Be My Extravert

Everyone In The Movie Industry Wants To Win An Oscar. I Don't Think That's Why You Make Movies. But Winning An Oscar Is Not Just About Making A Great Movie, Unfortunately. It's Also Having A Good Oscar Campaign.

I Suppose You Do Think About The Time That's Allotted To You More Than When You Were Younger. The Mortality Thing Obviously Has A Stronger Pull For You. It's An Imminent Truth; It's Not Necessarily A Bad Thing. You Realize - Much Earlier Than My Age Now - That You Won't Be Able To Play For England's Football Team, Just To Take A Really Crass Example. So You Can't Have That Life Again. Unless You Believe In Reincarnation Or Whatever. Reincarnation? That's A Whole Other Question. I Find People Who Talk About That Sort Of Thing In Interviews Idiotic. And I Don't Want To Go Down With Them.

I Came Into Music Just Because I Wanted The Bread. It's True. I Looked Around And This Seemed Like The Only Way I Was Going To Get The Kind Of Bread I Wanted.
