I don't want to sound arrogant, but I want to win an Oscar. I want to take another leap.

[on having a baby] I turned and saw my enormous wife, and knew that once the baby is born, I can't disappear for two months to shoot and be completely self-absorbed.

[on his son's name] He could become a bank robber, or a comedian in the Catskills. If he's a bass player, he can be Mick Sender. If he runs a bank, he can be M. Sender Siegel, and if he's a gossip columnist or sportswriter, he can be Mickey Siegal.

[on weddings] I think weddings are very unpleasant for single men. I think that most guys don't want to get married. It's not something men aspire too. You have a dialogue with yourself. You're not married. You ought to get married. Do you want to get married? You will get married. Now you can enjoy the buffet. You can drink the wine.
