My message especially to young people is to have courage to think differently courage to invent to travel the unexplored path courage to discover the impossible and to conquer the problems and succeed. These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my message to the young people.
Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
I never had a cool older brother or sister to turn me on to cool music. I had to discover it for myself.
If I took over the 'Glamour' offices for a day I would put Joe Pesci on the cover. I would say 'We've got to change all these magazines a little bit. We have to bring out a different version of what is like cool. You know what's winning. Joe Pesci Burt Reynolds.'
I never felt cool growing up. I was a bit of an outsider but I discovered theatre very early on which got me through.
But this is Miami you can't come to Miami and not show any skin. You gotta show something. If you're all covered up in this heat you're gonna make me pass out out just to look at you. It's sweaty in Miami-but the diamonds will keep me cool.
I was in a really crummy pop-punk band. I think we did a whole bunch of Blink-182 covers and we were on the fringe of losers and jocks. So we invited all the cool kids to come watch us play in our bass player's brother's bedroom. And it was terrible but everyone thought we were so cool.
Period costume films are fun to discover but they're not relatable. It's more 'Wow that's cool - did it really look like that back then?' Whereas with a comedy you're like 'Yeah that's me that's my friends.' No matter what I want people to relate.
I think it's really cool that there are people like Adele on the cover of 'Vogue' and 'Rolling Stone ' and like I think it's really important that people are talking about your body because if they don't then you'll never be able to break that barrier.
It was just an idea I had that it could be cool to have a book covered in fake fur.
