Quote
1 If did go back to school, I would want to learn another aspect of the entertainment industry like to become a producer or an agent, you need a law degree.
2 The Exorcist (1973) doesn’t get me, but The Omen (1976) does.
3 I went to public school for like, one day. I don’t get it. Everybody tries to be exactly the same. I think being an outsider is a good thing.
4 When I finish a film, I like to drastically change my appearance. I get sick of looking at the same thing in the mirror for months at a time. So when a film’s over, I’ll do something like shave my head.
5 Donner likes what he does and enjoys being on a set. He doesn’t have to do it, its not like he has to make the rent. When I get to be his age and still enjoy what I’m doing like him, I’d be lucky.
6 The first The Matrix (1999) genius, the second one, what’s up with the dancing? I haven’t even seen the third one.
7 I always play these rodent type characters – skittish and hyper like a chipmunk. It’s a complete act though. I’m a very normal person.
8 You just have to do your own thing, no matter what anyone says. It’s your life.
9 For me, I’ve always taken being on a set as my school, because I’ve been working since I was ten.
10 [on Ed O’Neill] He’s like my dad. He taught me everything.
11 [From an article with the cast of Can’t Hardly Wait (1998)] “I was home-schooled. But going to high school, I never would’ve been able to travel the U.S. or been able to do acting”.
12 Real love is more than a physical feeling. If there’s even the slightest doubt in your head about a guy, then forget about it. It’s not real.
13 Everybody tries to be exactly the same. I think being an outsider is a good thing.
14 You can’t think about things you want to change. Just be yourself.
