"I have to accept the fact that these films have had a fantastic effect on people, and to deny that doesn`t make any sense until I do something that has the same cultural and social impact of those movies. That`s just the way it is."

"I think I was blessed to be given the opportunity to be in those [Brat Pack] movies. I think they`re great movies, and I`m proud of my work in them. But on the other hand, to talk about something I did so long ago when I have continued to work and do other things is a little tiring. I just get bored. I keep going back to those movies when I don`t have anything new to say about them."
