"I'm a Hollywood writer, so I put on my sports jacket and take off my brain"

"I've got the brain of a four year old. I'll bet he was glad to be rid of it"

"An idea not coupled with action will never get any bigger than the brain cell it occupied"

"They'll always be an England, even if it's in Hollywood"

"Hollywood didn't know if I was an actor or a nut or if I was this crazy character I was playing. I had developed an image of being a little bit unusual, different and wild"

"What's really exciting for me is communicating to other people and not just going somewhere to make a movie. That's Hollywood to me and it would mean nothing"

"Hollywood is like Picasso's bathroom"

"I think for the last fifteen, twenty years or so, Hollywood has underestimated the appeal of the Western. I think there is still a huge market"

"If only we could pull out our brain and use only our eyes"

"Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul"

"The average Hollywood film star's ambition is to be admired by an American, courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman and have a French boyfriend"
