"Everybody has something that chews them up and, for me, that thing was always loneliness. The cinema has the power to make you not feel lonely, even when you are.""No journalist has ever been in my house and no photographs have ever been taken of where I live. I don't parade my family out for display, which is the way it will stay."
"There's a difference between solitude and loneliness. I can understand the concept of being a monk for a while."
"There is something basic about protecting land by taking it off the market. People should be able to enjoy where they live while at the same time protect the plants and animals around them."
"Eating everything you want is not that much fun. When you live a life with no boundaries, there's less joy. If you can eat anything you want to, what's the fun in eating anything you want to?"
"I'm glad I didn't have to fight in any war. I'm glad I didn't have to pick up a gun. I'm glad I didn't get killed or kill somebody. I hope my kids enjoy the same lack of manhood."
"My work is more fun than fun but, best of all, it's still very scary. You are always walking some kind of high wire."
"As a boy I'd often spend my days biking on riverbeds and arroyos and come home exhausted. I realize now how much I took for granted having the natural world so close at hand. It wasn't until I moved away, first to New York and then to Los Angeles, that I realized how much I missed the outdoors."
"If you're funny, if there's something that makes you laugh, then every day's going to be okay."
"If they could offer up a way to go to the moon that wouldn't kill you, I'd sign up."
"I don't cause riots, but I do cause confusion. People freeze when they spot me."
