I now hate actors that blink too much on screen. When people blink, I turn the movie off. So I don't blink at all.

I learned not to blink in a close-up or move your head at all, because if you did, they wouldn't use it.

I don't even know if you can blink in a hundredth of a second, and that's what it comes down to in speed skating.

I think there's a joy to be had in taking readers where they just don't want to go. If you are writing a properly realist novel, then don't blink. Why not see something for what it is and render it truthfully? I find it a good way of going about writing - not to blink.

It's sort of fun. If someone's eyeballing you, it makes you feel good.

It really annoys me when the light turns green, and you're behind somebody, and they're just sitting there looking at the light for about 15, 20 seconds.

I read in the papers how much I'm earning and fall about laughing because I'm sure it's not that much; otherwise, I'd have an enormous boat. I'm literally not the slightest bit interested in money. I just don't pay any attention to money; it's rather vulgar.

What better way to connect with people than by staring and talking straight at them? Don't blink - that's one less connection you could have made.

I've never been a big fan of making telepathy to the audience. That would be too much a wink in the eye. That would make people around me fools, right?
