Vanity Is My Favourite Sin.

I Destroy The Painting As Soon As I Can See What It Is. When I Can Make Out Something In It, I Destroy It Because It's No Longer Coming From My Unconscious.

You Don't Get To Know Anybody In A Movie Until After It's Over. You Work Less Together In A Film Than You Do Onstage.

I Have A Life And Do A Lot Of Things, And So Far My Work Has Been My Life. If I Was A Painter No One Would Question Me About My Age. I'm An Artist, I Hate Saying That.

When You Do These Things, You Sort Of Take The Journey. The Journey Is All About How I Can Interweave The Oscar Wilde Story, The Story Of Salome, The Play Itself And What It Is, What It Contains, And My Journey As An Actor, As A Director, As A Filmmaker, As A Person Struggling With Whatever I'm Struggling With - My Own Celebrity, My Own Life. This Is Semi-autobiographical In Terms Of My Commitment To This Kind Of Thing.

I Didn't Want The Book [of Memoirs] Out, Naturally - Larry [grobel] Knew That For 20 Years, 15 At Least, I Didn't Want Anything Written About Me. Then, You Know, Things Happen, Finally It's Ok And I Trust Larry. Nothing About It Is Salacious In Any Way.
