[in 1993] I’ve always maintained that actors are best when they find characters that are congruent with the emotions they’re going through at the moment.
[in 1993] My wife doesn’t understand why I’m a sex symbol. She says I don’t look different from a guy on the street.
[In 2012, reflecting on working with Debra Winger in An Officer and a Gentleman (1982)] I was delighted, she was perfect for the part . . .
She has a really interesting quality. Again, I haven’t seen this film in 30 years. But she is, she’s really a kind of true heart in the camera. It’s very hard to be as kind of open and unguarded and nice. You know, a nice person and kind of a genuine person and true heart on camera. That’s not an easy thing to do. She’s able to pull that off. I could never be that way. I was too complicated. There were too many things going on. Just the straightforward presence is an extremely difficult thing to do.
There doesn’t appear to be any sort of basis for any of this. I have a feeling something hidden is at work here that will someday see the light of day. I keep asking myself where all this personal enmity between George Bush and Saddam Hussein comes from. It’s like the story of Captain Ahab and the great white whale from “Moby Dick”. We have to say, “Stop”. There’s no reason for a war. At the moment Hussein is not threatening anybody. It’d be different if he was staring somebody down with a loaded gun in his hand. But there doesn’t seem to be any indications whatsoever that this man poses an immediate threat to anybody. America has never paid any attention to other people, so it’s absurd for Bush to say that it’s all in the best interests of the Iraqi people. If the United States marches into Iraq without the backing of the United Nations, that will be done entirely without the backing of the American people.
