I love working with a cast and a group of people every day which is different than recording because you're usually pretty isolated and alone. They serve as a good balance for each other.

I believe in capitalism for everybody not necessarily high finance but capitalism that works for the working men and women of this country who are out there paddling alone in America right now.

I've been left alone even by the paparazzi because what sells is sex and scandal. Absent that they really don't have much interest in you. I'm still married still working still happy.

I have never found a companion that was so companionable as solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone let him be where he will.

For students today only 10 percent of children from working-class families graduate from college by the age of 24 as compared to 58 percent of upper-middle-class and wealthy families.

Working on the 'Ice Age' movies I'm really proud to be in them.

When I was younger my whole sense of self-worth was based on whether or not I was working which was awful. And I had a baby at 20 years old so it wasn't just about me. At around the age of 30 there was a stretch where I wasn't working - certainly not on anything I liked anyway - and I started to do other things.

From an early age I didn't buy into the value systems of working hard in a nine-to-five job. I thought creativity friendship and loyalty and pushing the boundaries of what was acceptable was much more interesting.

Work is transformative. It gives you a greater chance of a greater income. You can affect your life while you're of working age so you have scope and opportunity. Pensioners do not.

My view is pensioners don't have the one option that people of working age have. They can't really increase their income because they are no longer able to work.
