I think I'm finally growing up - and about time.

I really don't remember much about Cleopatra. There were a lot of other things going on.

I've always admitted that I'm ruled by my passions.

Marriage is a great institution.

I couldn't write a happy movie or romantic comedy to save my life. Yes, Noel Coward's an idol, but his plays are serious to me. 'Private Lives' and 'Design for Living' both have an edge. Without psychoanalyzing myself, I think I exorcise my demons in my work.

I believe in the institution of marriage, but one can't fix a time for it. Please don't predict it for me.

I lived in Italy for quite a while and married an Italian woman. While there, I immersed myself in the complete culture: the music, art, literature, film, food, and history. It's easy to fall in love with. As a country, Italy does a good job of holding onto its rich traditions and culture. There's a real lack of embracing history in America.

A married couple are well suited when both partners usually feel the need for a quarrel at the same time.
