Movies Quotes
“I can't do the same movies all my life. I'm conscious of that. But it's a trade-off. 'Dear John' allowed me to do movies I've wanted to do. You learn to balance it out. I'm still learning. Only now am I getting to do the kinds of movies that I have wanted to do. So it's a steady climb. You don't jump into a Soderbergh film.”
“People used to be funny about approaching me, but now they seem to think I'm as sane as anyone who's done what I've done in movies can be.”
-- Philip Seymour Hoffman

-- Jane Fonda

-- Ethan Hawke

-- Tim Heidecker
