Well you're talking about a long career, a lot of movies, a lot of stars. I guess working with Henry Fonda and Katherine Hepburn was a great privilege.

No one turns down a film with Woody; it's something everyone wants in their career as an important moment. He's such a comedic genius, without question, so I was thrilled.

I long for the days when grosses were not even known. There was no weekend competition.

Now a movie goes out to two, three thousand theaters and by Friday night at 10 o'clock they know if you are in or out. That desperate competition is, I think, horrendous. It's awful.

The Internet has been so good to me; I see its potential to help other people.

Traditionally, the science fiction reader has been the 16- to 24-year-old male, especially the male with an interest in technology.

Biology is the most powerful technology ever created. DNA is software, protein are hardware, cells are factories.

The reason it has taken so long for the robotics industry to move forward is because people keep trying to make something that is cool but difficult to achieve rather than trying to find solutions to actual human problems. Technology can be extremely expensive if you don't focus.
