I mean the trouble with some of the kind of relationship movies I've done is there's only so many ways you can shoot a conversation. I was really tired of talking heads.

I for one am tired of seeing movies about men damaging each other.

I was sick and tired of being an English actor who did a lot of American movies because I was cheap and good.

Not in the mornings I'm always so tired in the morning.

Another challenge? Getting up at 6:30 in the morning to go act. It's not fun acting that early in the morning or acting at 4 A.M in the middle of the night or in the morning when you're really tired. That's a challenge. What a luxurious problem to have.

I don't have an iPod. I mean I have a couple. Doesn't everyone? But I don't use it. I need to because I go to the gym now and I'm tired of listening to morning radio. I want some music! I do have a video iPod but I don't use it either.

Too much coffee. Too much coffee and Gatorade. It's a hell of a mix. If you're ever tired in the morning just try that mix and tell me what you think.

I've just finished my 20th book this past year and I'm working on my 21st book about the Middle East right now that I'll finish this year. And I get up early in the morning and when I get tired of the computer and tired of doing research I walk 20 steps out to my woodshop and I either build furniture or paint paintings. I'm an artist too.

The first thing I think about when I wake up most mornings is the fact that I'm tired. I have been tired for decades. I am tired in the morning and I am tired while becalmed in the slough of the afternoon and I am tired in the evening except right when I try to go to sleep.

I have retired but if there's anything that would kill me it is to wake up in the morning not knowing what to do.
