I'm a big collector of vinyl - I have a record room in my house - and I've always had a huge soundtrack album collection. So what I do as I'm writing a movie is go through all those songs trying to find good songs for fights or good pieces of music to layer into the film.

When I go into making a movie personally I don't try to bring other pieces of movies with me.

I've seen little pieces of 'Interview with a Vampire' when it was on TV but I kind of always go yuck! I don't watch R-rated movies so that really cuts down on a lot of the horror.

I have worked on very good movies that have been buried and I've worked on some resounding mediocrities that have been paraded through the marketplace like they were masterpieces.

The role of leadership is to transform the complex situation into small pieces and prioritize them.

Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces I would still plant my apple tree.

While it is true that Frank had a great sense of humor he was also very serious about composing music. In reality there are only a handful of skilled players who can play his most complex pieces. It takes a lot of patience to learn and requires a fantastic memory.

Clothes are my drug. I love Camden market - I have so many vintage pieces from there it's unbelievable. Clothes are really important to me they give me that feeling of happiness. I love being a bit free with it all and not giving myself rules.

Human felicity is produced not as much by great pieces of good fortune that seldom happen as by little advantages that occur every day.

Books are funny little portable pieces of thought.

I wanna make a jigsaw puzzle that's 40 000 pieces. And when you finish it it says 'go outside.'

She is a friend of mind. She gather me man. The pieces I am she gather them and give them back to me in all the right order. It's good you know when you got a woman who is a friend of your mind.

Men kick friendship around like a football but it doesn't seem to crack. Women treat it like glass and it goes to pieces.

Back a hundred years ago especially around Woodrow Wilson what happened in this country is we took freedom and we chopped it into pieces.

You cannot parcel out freedom in pieces because freedom is all or nothing.
