I grew up on the back of a motorcycle - my dad didn't have a car until I was a teenager.

I love whimsy. My mother was a word person, a real quipster. She was famous in the 1950s for being a contester in Utah: 25 words or less. My bicycle, our hi-fi... in 1959, she won $15,000 from Remington-Rand for writing about a shaver. She was a farm girl from South Dakota.

I bought a little hideaway up north, so I'll ship my motorcycle up there. It's much less dangerous than West Hollywood.

Damien Hirst knows how to drive super-fast cars... I love my bicycle.

I'm an environmentalist; I recycle.

Vittorio De Sica's 'Bicycle Thieves' changed my very idea of cinema.

I don't belong to a motorcycle club, but I know a lot of guys who do. I ride with some guys who do.

Marriage is a wonderful invention: then again, so is a bicycle repair kit.

Our planet has a peculiar wobble - its precession. And that precession produces upheavals in our weather, weather alterations we cycle through every 22,000, 41,000 and 100,000 years.

I don't like sports where it's like, you watch a guy on a motorcycle flip or something, then another guy does it, it looks exactly the same, and then at the end one guy gets higher points! It seems so arbitrary; I don't know who's ahead ever.

If I weren't doing what I'm doing today... I'd be traveling around the world on the back of a motorcycle.

I play golf and ride my motorcycle - my Harley - around the hills of California.

When I was young, I used to expect Parisians to wear little black berets, to bicycle about with strings of onions around their necks, and to brandish long sticks of bread, just like they used to do in school textbooks.

I was on a bridge going down; the bicycle broke and I smashed to the ground, face first. I broke my jaw and my teeth, and had to have plastic surgery.

I followed a girl I met in Japan to Los Angeles and ended up working in a motorcycle store. I quit the job one night, went to a party in the Hollywood Hills and ended up yelling at a bunch of people. Someone saw me yelling and asked me to be in a play. The first night, there was an agent in the audience who took me on and sent me out for jobs.

I know a little bit about motorcycles and motorcycle riding.

My first car was a motorcycle.

If I'm in the English countryside and get on my bicycle, I see what sort of strange inbred rural locals I can snap.

One day I'm riding a bicycle in my neighborhood, the next day I auditioned for Menudo and was on a plane to perform in front of 200,000 people.

'Sons' was about working class white guys. And even though I didn't grow up in a motorcycle club, I grew up in a working-class, white-guy neighborhood.
