"Life's scientific, but we don't know, do we? Not certainly, I mean."

William Golding

“Why is it fair game to question conservatives' love or loyalty to children or to their fellow man, but beyond the pale to question liberals' love of country?”
“I want you always to remember me. Will you remember that I existed, and that I stood next to you here like this?”
“I think to simply make fun of something isn't particularly interesting. I try to not just do a parody of something or belittle something or disparage something.”
“We are going to lose the war on terror because all of our agents are tied up investigating the GOP.”
“I discovered very soon, especially for movies, because I started in theater, that every director has his own universe. You have to be free enough to try to understand what he wants from you. Especially when that director has a tremendous personality. And I'm talking about people like Pedro Almodovar and Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino and Woody Allen. And you have to adapt. If you don't adapt to them, you are off the thing.”
“What the world has to eradicate is fear and ignorance.”
“Movies will end up being this esoteric art form, where only singular people will put films out in a small group of theaters.”
“This, I believe, is the appropriate image of human intercourse -- appropriate because it recognizes the qualities, the diversities, and the proper relationships of human utterances. As civilized human beings, we are the inheritors, neither of an inquiry about ourselves and the world, nor of an accumulating body of information, but of a conversation, begun in the primeval forests and extended and made more articulate in the course of centuries. It is a conversation which goes on both in public and within each of ourselves.”
