It's a neutralizing mantra to say to everybody, 'I come in peace.' I come in peace. That's why it's important.
L.A. is full of screenwriters. I don't know why. On many levels, it's such a thankless occupation.
Politics is a pure meritocracy. That's why Gordon Brown's cabinet had two brothers and a married couple in it. They just happened to be the best people around.
Why don't you get out of that wet coat and into a dry martini?
Why should women not be a martyr for her cause?
The Europeans and Americans have said the martyrdom operations are why Hamas has been put on the terrorist list. But now these operations have stopped. Did they then remove Hamas from the list of terrorist organisations? We do not launch wars. We are people resisting occupation.
I don't wanna learn about more science and math. That's not why I'm going to college.
That's why 'The Bourne Identity' has that sort of shaky style, because for the most part, Matt Damon and I were sneaking around Paris and shooting where we didn't have permits.

I have no idea why people want to watch puppets be the slightly meaner version of the weirdo holding them. It's beyond my comprehension.

Why should the Eisenhower memorial be over twice the size of WWII Memorial? Why should it be so vast as to comfortably house two Lincoln Memorials, two Washington Monuments, and two Jefferson Memorials - all six at once?
I could not understand why Meryl Streep, for example, is allowed to work while pregnant and I'm not.
If Stupidity got us into this mess, then why can't it get us out?
Why is it that although it takes us years to get into our messes, we expect God to get us out of them in a few days?
Many Mexican directors are scared to shoot in Mexico City, which is why there are many stories in Mexican cinema about little rural towns, or set a hundred years ago.
As of now, string theorists have no explanation of why there are three large dimensions as well as time, and the other dimensions are microscopic. Proposals about that have been all over the map.
Everybody in the Middle East wants to explain why they're right.
You might as well ask why a middle-aged man with no criminal record might put a paper bag over his head and rob a bank. I acted out of personal desperation.
Why can't DFW compete like San Francisco does with Oakland, like Miami does with Fort Lauderdale, and like Chicago O'Hare does with Midway?
