I'm a good son, a good father, a good husband - I've been married to the same woman for 30 years. I'm a good friend. I finished college, I have my education, I donate money anonymously. So when people criticize the kind of characters that I play on screen, I go, 'You know, that's part of history.'

I hope Obama gets scary in the next four years, 'cuz he ain't gotta worry about getting re-elected.

I actually think I have an audience member's sensibility about going to the movies.

Not everybody goes to movies to get their life changed.

I look at myself as an audience member. I still love movies, and I still go and sit in the back of the big dark room with everybody else, and I want the same thrill.
