I’ve kept the people who’ve been in my career who I feel are my family. Kathy [Kennedy] had been with me since 1978.

Rick Carter has done more than 15 of my directed films as a production designer Picture Quote #1

The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun Picture Quote #1

It’s easier to write from my own life, and it’s also more fun. I always write about relationships, for instance, whether they’re romantic relationships, friendships, encounters... there’s always a lesson to be learned from them Picture Quote #1
