Why would you be afraid of death? It would be an inconvenience. I have a lot of undone things and it's bound to get in the way. But, no, it doesn't scare me at all.
My big fight is not in the movie and I don't understand that decision but I know he's right about it, whatever it is. Quentin did not hire me because I'm a kung fu expert; he hired me because he liked to listen to me talk.
There's an alternative. There's always a third way, and it's not a combination of the other two ways. It's a different way.
If you cannot be a poet, be the poem.
You know, I've never actually really believed that death is inevitable. I just think it's a rumor.
