Women get the attention when we get into the men’s arena, and that’s sad.

Most ‘reality’ shows aren’t reality at all. They’re game shows with no prize. Like ‘Rock of Love.’ His aren’t genuine feelings. Then again, Bob Barker didn’t really care whether or not you won the toaster. Sorry to shatter everyone’s dreams.

One of the reasons why people – particularly young people – love action movies is because what they are really looking for is justice.
I say I never wanna get married. I feel trapped with the idea of marriage. How can you really be with somebody forever? I’d get bored! As I get older, I don’t settle. I’d rather tell somebody ‘This is what I want – take it or leave it.’
Basically, I believe the world is a jungle, and if it’s not a bit of a jungle in the home, a child cannot possibly be fit to enter the outside world.
Bereavement is the sharpest challenge to our trust in God if faith can overcome this, there is no mountain which it cannot remove.
We now live in a world where the only thing to have is success, but failure is marvelous. It’s fertiliser, it’s like living fertiliser, because you’re forced on yourself.

I’ve done an informal, anecdotal survey about marriage, and I’ve found no evidence that it brings happiness.
The ladder of success in Hollywood is usually a press agent, actor, director, producer, leading man and you are a star if you sleep with each of them in that order. Crude, but true.

It’s the golden age of French cinema again but it’s because Sarkozy had the guts to push through copyright law.
Defeat the fear of death and welcome the death of fear.

My parents separated when I was four. It wasn’t the smoothest of divorces, but then as my mother always says, you can’t have a passionate marriage without a passionate divorce.

I was never into the popular school or clique or anything. Then I started doing movies when I was in high school, so then I got popular. Then the girls paid attention to you who didn’t before.
