  • [on Uncle Buck (1989)] In the movie, Uncle Buck doesn’t talk down to these kids. And I think that’s why they like him. He treats them as an equal.
  • I’ve been taking shots at Tri- Star for their non-campaign of Who’s Harry Crumb? (1989). I mean, good God, there’s a team for ya. They sunk the picture and all got promotions for it.
  • I should have been in Ghostbusters (1984).
  • [on Wired (1989)] I have no desire to see that. I don’t see the need. I didn’t see the need for the book. I don’t see the need for the movie. Let it alone. Why? Why do we have to drag that out? Its such dirty laundry.
  • [on Eugene Levy] He’s wonderful. A great friend.
  • [on reading the script of Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987) for the first time] I just cried with laughter when I read it. Its like it was written with me in mind, which makes a big difference. I could see just see the movie in my mind.
