[On his strengths and weaknesses]: "I regret that I do not have the dignity of Ricardo Montalban, the class of Dean Martin, or the humour of Bill Cosby. I DO have the heart of a lion.
Burt Reynolds
[Talking about William Shatner]: "He`s just a wonderful actor who created a singular character. No one could have done Kirk the way Bill did. His energy and his determination, that`s Bill. And that`s also Captain Kirk."

On how to take the violence in Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003) (re: The final duel with Lucy Liu): "It`s supposed to be kind of amusing and poetic at the same time. And also just a teeny-tiny bit solemn. When you see her head, it`s funny. And then her line, `tha...

Bill has one style. We have completely contrasting personalities. We`re very good friends. I adore him, but we`re very different people, so they were smart enough to write characters that reflected that.

[on William Powell] The later ones [the Thin Man pictures] were very bad indeed, but it was always a joy to work with Bill Powell. He was and is a dear friend, and in the early Thin Man films with Woody Van Dyke, we managed to achieve what for those days ...
Myrna Loy
I wasn`t a religious follower of comic book activity as a kid, but I was a fanatical fan of the television show with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno. So my memories of the Hulk were very vivid.
Eric Bana
[on former US President Bill Clinton] It seems to me that the country rather misses him. He has impressed me. He asked me if I wanted to accompany him on a trip to Brazil, and so off I went. I`d met the President before in Washington, a very nice guy. So ...

Nobody`s good. I hate it. I truly hate it. I mean, there`s a lot of guys doing stuff I admire, but stand-up-wise I feel very alone. I really miss [Bill] Hicks. I wish I could have put him on my show. And I really miss Sam [Kinison] a lot. Richard [Pryor]`...

I sort of go by a duck when I work on a film because if you study a duck, you`ll see certain things. You`ll see a bill, and the bill is a certain texture and a certain length. Then you`ll see a head, and the features on the head are a certain texture and ...

My nightmare in life, my absolute fundamental, overwhelming, egregious nightmare, is Bill Gates` vision of the future, where there will be a video camera on every corner and every conversation will be recorded. Man, I`d rather put a pitchfork in my eyes t...
