When I was younger I was obsessed with 'Star 80,' and it's just a great movie - I think I saw it three times in the theater.

Directors tend to be more underrated than overrated because it's a quiet job and people don't really understand it.

Bangkok, like Las Vegas, sounds like a place where you make bad decisions.

I think any filmmaker looks back and thinks, 'Boy, if we only had four hours more on that day when the sun was going down,' or, 'If we only spent more time and went back.'

All my humor is based on destruction and despair. If the whole world were tranquil, without disease and violence, I'd be standing in the bread line - right in back of J. Edgar Hoover.

My areas of expertise are acting, comedy, radio jockeying.

Comedy is just honesty. Whether things are going well or bad.

My sister was very, very beautiful and I was very not. Doing comedy is the greatest thing ever because you don't have to do that, and I've since learned to let go of that.
