I Used To Live In Los Angeles, But I Didn't Want My Kids To Grow Up In The Thick Of The Obsession With Movie-making. There's A Lot Of Sensationalism And Superficiality. I Wanted To Take My Kids Out Of That And Raise 'em Up Elsewhere, And I Wanted To Stop Being Preoccupied With Whether My Star Is On The Rise Or The Descent.

I Truly Love [andy Serkis]. He's An Amazing Guy. Yeah, I Think That When We Really Synced Up Was When He Came Over To My Place, The Place I Rented In Vancouver, And We Had Like Two Bottles Of Wine, And What A Night. What A Night. And By The Way, I Don't Remember A Damn Thing We Talked About, But I Can Tell You It Would've Been Like The Greatest Conversation If We Could've Written It Down Or Something, Because It Was Incredible. He's Such A Bright, Amazing Guy.

Violence Was Almost An Aphrodisiac For Me.

I Have A Suspicion, Because If You Look At The Whole, All The [star Wars ] Movies, The Backlog Of Every One Of These Movies, There's A Lot Of Great Stuff, But One Might Not Be Not As Good With The Writing In This Or The Acting In That Or The Directing In That, This Has Great Actors, Great Directors, Great Script, And I Really Feel Like We're Gonna Make The Best One [movie With Young Han Solo].

There Were [in Wilson] A Lot Of Clues In It That You Don't Normally Get, You Know, Normally You Use Your Imagination Or Whatever, You Get Some Clues In The Script, Of Course, But Yeah, It Was Really Helpful, And I Really Like The Graphic Novel.

When I'm In New York, I Bike Everywhere. I Have A Couple Of Bikes Stored Over At Ed Norton's. It's The Only Way To Go. But In Hawaii, I Drive. I Have A Little Volkswagen Bug, From The 'drive It? Hug It?' Phase. I Run It On Biodiesel.

It's An Odd Beast, Fame. It's Got Multiple Personalities.

We've Killed A Million Iraqis Since The Start Of The Gulf War - Mostly By Blocking Humanitarian Aid.

A Grownup Is A Child With Layers On.

If You Eat Chicken, Maybe You're On One Level. If You Wear A Mink Coat, Maybe You're On Another Level. But If You Wear Cosmetics, Cosmetics That Are Tested On Animals, Then You're Just Unconscious.

These People Should Not Be Treated As Criminals.

But Once You Realize - And It's Not A Big Trick To Really Figure It Out - That It's Just Completely Artificial, An External Pumping Of The Ego That's Never Going To Really Help You, Then It's An Easy Thing To Step Out Of It. That's Probably Why Harrison Ford Lives In Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
