If I'm a guy reading a newspaper, and I hear this actor who I know gets great seats at basketball games, and he's complaining about being typecast, I think, 'Hey man, count your blessings.'

God didn't design anyone to be recognized by 2 billion people.

What's the name of that famous museum in Paris? The Louvre? I went through that place in 20 minutes.

Your instincts for what's dramatic are the same whether you're working on a drawing or on a script.

I lose things. I am preoccupied. I am misty. Eyeglasses? I go through eyeglasses like tissue.

When I go see a basketball game, I'm always in the front row. I always have a table at a restaurant; I never have trouble getting a taxi.

In order to be totally spontaneous, you can't be too obsessed with accuracy, but if you're inaccurate in a drawing, it will look fake, and when you act, it will sound fake. You have to find miraculously some proper balance between the two, but there's no formula.

Certainly, you envy the guys that have done all kinds of things, a variety of good scripts and good directors. Then again, having worked with Cassavetes has satisfied a big part of that.

I watch practically no TV - ah, what the hell do I watch? Oh, I was for a long time addicted to CNN.

I don't like getting up in the morning, getting in a car, driving on a freeway, and stopping at a gate where two guards are standing there, then walk into a studio that looks like a bunch of airplane hangars.
