I wish the rock ‘n’ roll scene to be back in.
I’m starting to judge success by the time I have for myself, the time I spend with family and friends. My priorities aren’t amending; they’re shifting.
Elizabeth Hurley and I had a lot of fun together. She’s a very beautiful, confident woman.
Graham Greene, as I understand it, was quite outspoken in his criticism of American foreign policy.
If you run an Internet search on Vietnam and the war, most of the information you get begins at about 1962. I think this is telling. It is missing the whole period that led up to the reasons the war happened in the first place.
Ian McKellen is brilliant with research. I paid really close attention to the sources he goes to. He’s a very, very intelligent man.
I wish I could go home. I’ve been on the road since May. I wonder if my dogs still remember me.

I have so much satisfaction in my life. I have a beautiful wife and the great stimulation of an interesting career. I’m the most happy fellow that I know.

I remember thinking, I want to work for the camera.
I still don’t understand the music industry that much. Everything I learned was from hanging out with rock musicians in studios. I certainly have respect for those who make music their livelihood.
Burroughs was never really that pleased with the way popular culture and society treated his character. He tried to make a few movies of his own as a result, but they weren’t very good.
