I've never reacted well to other people telling me what to do.

If you're going to do something that's going to cause offence to people, you're always going to get a reaction.

Have the courage to act instead of react.

I have found that I get a better reaction from people once I am less bothered about their reaction.

Nothing I ever did I expected to do. It just kind of happened.

It's not the situation... It's your reaction to the situation.

Anytime I make a movie, I really have absolutely no idea how it's going to go over. I've had the whole range of different kinds of reactions.

In life you get one take, and it's perfect. It's strange, afterwards you might think I shouldn't have reacted that way, but that's the way you reacted. That's your take; that's all you get.

It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.
