• "The whole concept of celebrity pisses me off. While I'm not a celebrity, it's
such a weird concept that society has cooked up for us. Astronauts and teachers
are much more amazing than actors."
• " Most scripts are bad. I read a lot of them. "Brick" was a good script just to
read. It was like, 'Oh my God, these words feel so good in my mouth.' A lot of
movies try to set up a world with cool sets, costumes, camera work. In "Brick,"
the world is born from the words."
• "To me, a sex scene in a movie generally means a gratuitous scene that doesn't
serve the story but gives a kind of excuse; we've got these two actors, we want
to see them naked, so let's bring in the music and the soft light."
• "Actors didn't use to be celebrities. A hundred years ago, they put the theaters
next to the brothels. Actors were poor. Celebrities used to be kings and queens.
Then the United States abolished monarchy, and now there's this coming together
of show business and celebrity. I don't think it's healthy. I don't want to
sound self-important, but all these celebrity shows and magazines - it comes
from us, from Hollywood, from our country. We're the ones creating it. And I
think it works in close step with a lot of other bad things that are happening
in the world. It promotes greed, it promotes being selfish and it promotes this
ladder, where you're a better person if you have more money. It's not at all
about the work itself. Don't get me wrong. I love movies. But this myth of
celebrity has nothing to do with movies."
