You know when I feel inwardly beautiful? When I am with my girlfriends and we are having a 'goddess circle'.
I thought maybe I could become like the next Van Gogh. I bought a sunflower and painted it, and it looked like the work of a 6-year-old.
I knew the lysosomes and peroxisomes because I had discovered them; I knew the mitochondria because I was interested in them. I knew the membrane system because my friend, George Palade, had worked on that.
What I learned is, don't forget who you are, because that's what's going to make you a filmmaker.
Hey, I've been doing what I do for a long time, my friend.
My friend asked me if I wanted a frozen banana. I said 'No, but I want a regular banana later, so... yeah.'
Having three brothers in the league has been real fun for the whole family, and we're just trying to keep it going.
By the time I started doing TV and film, I was in my forties, so I wasn't going to do the young up-and-comer.
I think that when you're making a story... that's based on somebody, the filmmaker has his duty to do his research.
