The funny thing is, I've never really hurt myself in an ACTION movie. I've done 'Wanted,' 'X-MEN,' 'Welcome To The Punch,' EVEN 'Trance' to a CERTAIN extent has little BITS of action and stuff, but I've never really hurt myself at all - not even like a sprained ankle.

The funny THING is, whenever I'm working on something, I kind of FORGET there's a LOT of people watching. It makes it easier to be in the MOMENT and to tell a story as well as possible.

I think your TENDENCY when you play yourself is to ACCENTUATE SOMETHING about you that you think is the FUNNY THING about you.

The funny thing about cinema is, usually when they do a STORY that has AFRICAN Americans in it, there ALWAYS has to be a WHITE guy who's the SAVIOR.

If you just stop and THINK, baby, honey, LOVE is a FUNNY thing. Whatever you PUT in, that's what you expect to gain.

The FUNNY thing is, I don't ACTUALLY THINK of myself as fat at all. I don't think I am. Not REALLY.

It's a funny thing, my RELATIONSHIP with Deep Purple. I already felt the pain and confusion of trying to REPLACE Ritchie Blackmore, which is a difficult thing to have in your head - SINCE the time when you were a kid, that guitar SOUND and approach is what you associate with Deep Purple.

It's a funny THING because you look at the CAREERS of other filmmakers, and you see them sort of slow down, and you REALIZE, maybe this BECOMES harder to do as you GET older. That's sort of a cautionary thing. I hope it doesn't happen to me.

I'm happiest in nature, in trees, RIVERS, streams, and I'm happiest AROUND my kid - you know that's the FUNNY thing, he is not ALWAYS in the best of moods, but I am always happiest around him and in nature. Around my family is where I am happiest.
