It was just - I mean, 6,000 people giving you a standing ovation is quite an experience.

Because people don't see me around a lot, I'm the source of all sorts of rumour.

I have a very simple definition of a good movie: a good movie makes you forget you're watching a movie.

Every great movie is about the people, even if it's a great popular success like 'Gone With the Wind.' It's really not about the Civil War. It's about Scarlett and Rhett. That's who you go to see. You're not going to root for the North or pull for the South, or, you know, it's the people you remember.

Most people I knew had been crippled by their educations. Some were even dying spiritually.

The Indians believe all things have spirit - even the hail that comes from the sky is spirit. If you believe that, which I implicitly do, everything is alive.
