If you want a midget to look like a baby, don't put a cigar in his mouth.

The only thing an adult can give a child is time.

The rules are simple. Take your work, but never yourself, seriously. Pour in the love and whatever skill you have, and it will come out.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

I have no neighbours other than animals and Joshua Trees.

I'm interested in the psychological exploration of human nature, and it just happens to come in the form of film-making.
