When man lives under government, he is fallen, his worth is gone, and his nature tarnished.

I've done movies for certain reasons; I did 'Anaconda' because the black man lives. Simple. The black man isn't dead in the first three pages, like Jurassic Park. It's like, 'The black man kills the snake with a Latino girl? Damn! I got to do this.'
Man lives in a world of surmise, of mystery, of uncertainties.
I have to say when a man lives for himself, it's hard to live with him. That's pretty much the story of all my divorces.
