The last few years I've been saying I was ready to quit. It wasn't that interesting to me. Now that I'm directing, it's all new again.

Meryl and Katharine Hepburn are probably the two greatest actresses of this and the last century.

The last few years have been pretty hectic.

I'd be more frightened by not using whatever abilities I'd been given. I'd be more frightened by procrastination and laziness.

I'm 64 years old, and I've been acting now for 42 years. Only recently have I thought to myself, 'Hmmm, it may be interesting to start directing.'

My mother used to tell me man gives the award, God gives the reward. I don't need another plaque.
