Philosophies Quotes


I believe in a higher power. I`ve studied Eastern philosophies, and I`ve studied the Koran. We`ve devalued everything worth believing in. Now we`re tearing into religion. A line should be drawn. The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) and The Da Vinci Code (2006) borders on that. I was glued to the book, but afterwards I thought, `Oh my Lord, now we`re tearing into God and our faith.` Are we going to be turning into a reality show too? I certainly hope not.

I wasn`t going to glorify war . . . I was a schmuck, because if I did "Patton" half as good as Mr. Scott (George C. Scott), I might have walked into The Godfather (1972). So that was a big mistake.
