A career is a series of ups and downs, of comebacks.

I've made a lot of people a lot of money, and I've made a lot of people really happy. I've entertained millions and millions of people.

Typecasting is a good thing. It's good to be known for what you do.

I love the fame and the money and the power. You have to keep working to have that.

Just as most of us prefer to watch a trapeze artist work without a net, we like to be absolutely sure that a virtuoso is giving us our money's worth, and a seemingly effortless performance, no matter how spectacular it may be, deprives us of that slightly sadistic thrill.

We have a lot of respect for the fact that you can't make movies without money and that when money comes to the table, that money deserves to have a place in the process as much as anything else in the film-making equation.

Time is money.

I think eventually I want to become a teacher, like my father wanted to be, and hopefully positively influence the next generation.
