The city of Chicago was a character in the movie, as depicted by Landis and I think all of us, in the affection we had for it. It really is one of the characters of the movie. It really comes alive as a beautiful place.

I think I'm a narcoleptic. I could sleep on a railway track with a train running over me, in-between the rails.

I love to come in and play with a wig or glasses or clothes. I love using props. I'm from the Peter Sellers school of trying to prepare for the character.

Well, the common enemy in North America is the Western consumer. The consumer has driven oil up to $50 a barrel so we have to have these wars. I think it's incumbent upon us to.

We knew Chicago was a good team going in there. We didn't know it was as good as it is on defense. We made a couple of errors, and they got ahead. That's the way they like to play.

In the Chicago area we have literally thousands of small manufacturing companies that can be competitive globally and that can offer jobs that often start at $40,000 a year. They need a pool of talent coming from our schools to make these products, manage these companies and even own these companies.
