Nothing can come out of nothing, any more than a thing can go back to nothing..

What can go wrong will go wrong..

You have to have something to put your work in otherwise it's not valid.

A life lived in fear is a life half lived..

I've lived my life again just telling it to you..

I make movies for money, exclusively for money..

No- I cannot talk of books in a ballroom; my head is always full of something else..

I also love Australian movies. I love Muriel's Wedding - I've seen in six times. Baz Luhrmann's best movie is strictly ballroom... without question..
