I was never sloppy with other people's money. Only my own. Because I figure, well, you can be.

As long as I can make lots of money in other businesses, I'll continue to subsidize my own work.

Lots of people have criticized my movies, but nobody has ever identified the real problem: I'm a sloppy filmmaker.

I never went to a psychologist or psychiatrist in my life. Never. You know, Italians are a little prejudiced against that kind of thing.

I never thought I would get to have my own action figure.

I don't go on set with an army of people because the most expensive elements of a movie production are the plane tickets, the hotel rooms, food and gasoline. If you're willing to discover new colleagues in the place that you are, you can save a ton of money.
