The only thing I can't do is hear. I can drive I have a life with four kids I work on TV I do movies so the deafness question is it that they want to know because what? Not sure.

Movies about space raise those questions of what we're doing here and that inevitably introduces a spiritual dimension.

I'm not Michael Moore. I think Michael Moore wants to tell you how to think. He wants to give you answers. I make movies to raise my own personal questions and not to give answers.

The financial implode is bound to be reflected in the movies that are being made there's no question.

My joking answer to this question is that I leave a bowl of milk out on the back porch every night for the Idea Fairy. In the morning the milk is gone and there's a brand-new shiny idea by the bowl.

The question is the morning after. What sort of Iraq do we wake up to after the bombing? What happens in the region? What impact could it have? These are questions leaders I have spoken to have posed.

Nowadays everybody assumes when they wake up in the morning if they have a question it will get answered. Because they have the internet. No matter what the question is someone will answer their question.

There is a one woman in China that claimed she paid $50 to get my e-mail address. It was pretty shocking. I got one this morning from Scotland. A girl's requesting a signed photo of me.

And we've got to ask ourselves some very serious questions as to whether or not certain religious leaders in terms of raising money - I hate to bring this up - are pushing hot buttons.

I don't think anybody cares about unwed mothers unless they're black or poor. The question is not morality the question is money. That's what we're upset about.

In the seventies a group of American artists seized the means not of production but of reproduction. They tore apart visual culture at a time of no money no market and no one paying attention except other artists. Vietnam and Watergate had happened everything in America was being questioned.

I'd asked around 10 or 15 people for suggestions. Finally one lady friend asked the right question 'Well what do you love most?' That's how I started painting money.

As one digs deeper into the national character of the Americans one sees that they have sought the value of everything in this world only in the answer to this single question: how much money will it bring in?

When it is a question of money everybody is of the same religion.

My mom and father are extremely proud. They love it when I don't die. I've done so many movies where I've died that their first question when I book a job is 'So are you going to die in this?'

Many of my books come from what if questions that I can't answer things that I'm worried about as either a woman a wife a mom an American.

There is frequently more to be learned from the unexpected questions of a child than the discourses of men.

I think people are born bisexual and the make subconscious choices based on the pressures of society. I have no question in my mind about being bisexual. But I'm also a hypocrite: I would never date a girl who is bisexual because that means they also sleep with men and men are so dirty that I'd never sleep with a girl who had slept with a man.

To die for an idea it is unquestionably noble. But how much nobler it would be if men died for ideas that were true!

It is an interesting question how far men would retain their relative rank if they were divested of their clothes.

Ignorant men raise questions that wise men answered a thousand years ago.

Rarely do we find men who willingly engage in hard solid thinking. There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think.

Another cause of change one less noticeable but fundamental is the modern growth of population closely connected with scientific and medical discoveries. It is interesting that the United Nations has set up a special Commission to study this question.
