When you're in a car which can win every race or fight for a win every race that is pressure.

Life is a gamble. You can get hurt but people die in plane crashes lose their arms and legs in car accidents people die every day. Same with fighters: some die some get hurt some go on. You just don't let yourself believe it will happen to you.

What's so touching is the way we fight the war right until the moment our business is taken care of and then we turn on a dime and we immediately start taking care of people. It's like a shock and aw shucks campaign.

I've set the model of showing fighters how they should conduct their business.

And then there's all these other creeps that surround your band and suck off you like leeches and try to manipulate you and your business. You have to watch like a hawk. I'm always ready to fight. I see it very much as a battle.

I have been and will go on fighting that damnable dirty rotten business with all the power at my command.

I learned you have to fight for yourself in the picture business.

The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters - not to talk in armies and nations and numbers - but to track it home.

Mental fight means thinking against the current not with it. It is our business to puncture gas bags and discover the seeds of truth.

For my birthday I got a humidifier and a de-humidifier... I put them in the same room and let them fight it out.
