I don't want to just do independent movies and I don't want to just do adventure films. I enjoy both and I think both are cogent.

Last year when 'Black Swan ' 'True Grit' and 'King's Speech' all grossed over $100 million it gave studios and independent financiers the confidence to make daring movies and not do the same old you-know-what.

I've made three musical movies which is pretty good considering that not many are made but I was lucky in other ways. I came along when independent movies were starting to boom.

I don't want to produce anymore small or independent movies because it's just too hard these days.

It really depends but generally speaking just because of the mechanics of it voice-over is easier because there is no hair no makeup no wardrobe no fittings no line memorizing. You don't have to me woken up in Russia at 6 in the morning and go film a scene. It's just easier on the body the family life to do voice-overs.

Sometimes I have wrinkles in the morning. It depends on what kind of night that I had. I accept myself and the way that I am growing older. I have eye bags and some people have proposed to me to take them out but I said no.

It is easy to be independent when you've got money. But to be independent when you haven't got a thing that's the Lord's test.

I think everything depends on money.

Growing up with three older brothers and being the youngest and the only girl my mom always made me tough. She's taught me over the years how to be a strong independent woman how to carry yourself in a positive way and anything that my brothers can do I can do.

I grew up with just my mom. She and I were like best friends. She's a very independent woman and I admire that about her. In my life I've tried to be like that. To be okay with being on my own and being independent.

There is nothing worse that a thirteen-year-old boy. You're embarrassed by your parents and you're trying to find your independance because deep inside you are so dependent on your mom.

Depending on what day of the week it is and what time of the month it is I'm a good friend or not a good friend. I'm more or less a good mom or not a good mom more or less a good mate or not a good mate. That's just life whether or not you're public.

Thankfully I have my mom and a small group of close friends who are there for me 24/7 and whom I can trust and depend on.

The strength and power of a country depends absolutely on the quantity of good men and women in it.

Time is the most valuable thing on earth: time to think time to act time to extend our fraternal relations time to become better men time to become better women time to become better and more independent citizens.

The fact that he didn't get credit for a while is more the story of social injustice. But his own spirit wasn't driven by that and wasn't dependent upon that. He just wished he had the cash to go to medical school.

I don't think there's any independent cartoonist whose stuff I don't like or respect in at least some way or another. We're all marginal laborers - we're practically medical oddities - so I don't see why we can't all be nice to each other.
