Sofia Quotes

I remember being in Japan 10 years ago for a golf tournament. I turned over a Kirin beer coaster, and there was Harrison Ford`s picture. He`s a guy who would never be caught dead doing a commercial here. He had a bottle in his hand and the most uncomfortable look on his face, like, "I can`t believe I`m shilling." When Sofia Coppola, the director of Lost in Translation, sent me the script, she included a photo and said, `This is what I have in mind.`, It was Brad Pitt in an ad for espresso in a can, and he had the same grimace: `I can`t believe I`m selling this can of coffee.`, That influenced me when I had to do my own shtick. - 2003 quote on his role in Lost In Translation.

Aw, man, is that the only adjective they know? It`s like every time I make a goddamn movie, the word quirky" is hauled out in the American reviews. Now I see it`s being applied to Wes Anderson, too. All of a sudden, his films are quirky. And Sofia Coppola is quirky. It`s just so goddamn lazy."

Sofia is so active, and she made The Virgin Suicides, which I thought was great - all these things are inspiring to me, not in terms of creating a particular dress, but just in terms of knowing that there is this type of woman out there.

I think of many people and no one as a muse. I love the way Sofia looks always, and I love the way Kim looks always. Fashion may be part of their world, but it`s not their whole life. It`s not everything.
