“I've been writing a lot, I've a few projects I'm trying to finance, I do some acting, I do some directing... Apart from that, if I could get lower that a ten handicap on my golf game I'd be thrilled.”

“We all know that looking back only gets you into an accident because you're going to run into something without seeing it.”
