Going to the gym wouldn't be on my list of favorite things to do.
One of my favorite things about Telluride is because it's so small, the directors are really there for each other. You look at another director, and they feel the same thing you feel.
Garlic oil is one of my favorite things on the planet. You can roast 20 cloves of garlic in oil and use it in everything - you can even slide those soft whole cloves into a dish of hot mashed potatoes.
George Lucas was casting about and had heard favourable things about my work in Clockwork Orange and asked me to come in, which of course I did even though no one knew what the film was about!
Freedom and confidence are two different things, in my book. Confidence is overrated - it can be faked, whereas freedom is fearlessness.
I always feel I could be like Toni Collette, going between big studio things and indie films. That would be feasible.
Is education possibly a process of trading awareness for things of lesser worth? The goose who trades his is soon a pile of feathers.

One of the things that I always say about bioterrorism, whether it's ourselves at the federal level, folks at the state level, or folks in the private industry, we've done many great things, especially since 9/11.
I'm a sucker for two things: Adam Lambert and songs that start out as emo as a sad episode of 'Felicity' and then drop. That. Beat.
There's no need for a female character that does things like a male character; that's not what makes interesting female characters in my view.
The stupidity of militarized fences between two worlds is a metaphor for all the things that divide us as human beings.
Barack Obama is many things; among them, he is a tough and even ferocious political warrior.
Exposure is about, among other things, the ferocity of the press and the way - in an echo of some of Shakespeare's plays - the modern media creates heroes to destroy them.
I've always had this incredible sense of urgency. I've always had this desire not to let things fester and to really seize the moment, because it's serendipity.
Things are worth what they will fetch at a sale.
There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord, but few of us are willing to do little things.
Once you have a computer that can do a few things - strictly speaking, one that has a certain 'sufficient set' of basic procedures - it can do basically anything any other computer can do. This, loosely, is the basis of the great principle of 'Universality'.
Switzerland is a country where very few things begin, but many things end.
On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done as easily lying down .
