The Oscars are really nice, but the best part is that I had the opportunity to do that kind of work.

I am always a little surprised when anyone sees anything I make, so being nominated for the Oscar is beyond amazing - what a tremendous honor.

I remember when I first won the Academy Award and how much I loved it. I just wish there was an award around that you could really believe in again.

I love the Oscars. All sorts of tacky people win. And watching everyone run up and down those aisles is just adorable.

The Oscar nomination is great. It's a great pat on the back. And I like that.

The Oscar made me a star, and I'm grateful. But I feel had I not won the Oscar I wouldn't have gotten into the messes I did in my personal life.

There's a lot of great movies that have won the Academy Award, and a lot of great movies that haven't. You just do the best you can.

Well, it was the beginning of my film career. It was amazing to me that I got nominated for an Academy Award.

I love watching the Oscars and seeing everybody saying all that 'it's an honour just to be nominated' rubbish. Then you see their faces when the split screen comes up as the winner is announced - the losers are all smiling through gritted teeth and looking as if they just swallowed half a pound of soor plooms.

I have to remember that winning an Oscar is an almost unbelievable goal and that it is an honour just to be nominated.
