We live in an image society. Speeches are not what anybody cares about what they care about is the picture.

The thing about science is that it's an accurate picture of the world.

I really like science because it seems to be that place where you get the big picture everything connects.

I landed a job with Roger Corman. The job was to write the English dialogue for a Russian science fiction picture. I didn't speak any Russian. He didn't care whether I could understand what they were saying he wanted me to make up dialogue.

It can make you sad to look at pictures from your youth. So there's a trick to it. The trick is not to look at the later pictures.

When I look back at those pictures of my mother performing - and listen to her recordings - it makes me sad to think that all of that joy she found in her work came to an end. I wish she hadn't had to make that sacrifice even if it was for the benefit of my father and siblings and me.

All pictures are unnatural. All pictures are sad because they're about dead people. Paintings you don't think of in a special time or with a specific event. With photos I always think I'm looking at something dead.

You do your work as a photographer and everything becomes past. Words are more like thoughts the photographer's picture is always surrounded by a kind of romantic glamor - no matter what you do and how you twist it.

And even Moonstruck - for some reason the audience were just in the mood for a very romantic film because it's one of the few romantic comedies to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar.

Moonstruck... was one of the few romantic comedies to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar.

The Southern whites are in many respects a great people. Looked at from a certain point of view they are picturesque. If one will put oneself in a romantic frame of mind one can admire their notions of chivalry and bravery and justice.

I saw Tequila Sunrise as a romantic picture with complex bigger than life characters.

There are some people who become best friends with everyone they photograph. There are people that I really like and admire and respect but in a way I think it's better to keep a distance. I think you get better pictures of people that you don't know very well.

I respect newspapers but the reality is that magazine 'photojournalism' is finished. They want illustrations Photoshopped pictures of movie stars.

I feel like the quality of privacy and respect of people's personal space has been completely disintegrated. You can ask to take the picture. I will be so glad to take the picture and pose and look good for the picture.

I've always had a great respect for the picture business. It's been good to me.

As an actor you really want to respect and honor the script. You want to try to be in the moment and you also realize that you're one part of a bigger picture and when they call action you have your dance.

If you are part of a religion that very strongly insists that you believe then to decide not to do that is quite a big hurdle to jump over. You never forget the thought process you went through. It becomes part of your whole intellectual picture.

A conversation goes sometimes into personal things and that's nicer. You look to each other and you have a different picture you get into a relationship.

I've seen it too many times in Hollywood. Talking about a relationship in public can jinx it. And if you have your picture taken together you might as well start packing your bags.

I don't know really. I've always been interested in the small picture instead of the big one and I've always been interested in relationship pictures.

Every relationship between persons causes a picture of each to take form in the mind of the other and this picture evidently is in reciprocal relationship with that personal relationship.

This thing with everyone knowing you it's weird because people have this one-sided relationship where they look at your picture and feel they know you more than someone they actually know. I don't really know myself that well.

I'm appalled the word feminism has been denigrated to a place of almost ridicule and I very passionately believe the word needs to be revalued and reintroduced with power and understanding that this is a global picture.
