I always feel that crime films are about capitalism because it is a genre where it is perfectly acceptable for all the characters to be motivated by the desire for money. In some ways, the crime film is the most honest American film because it portrays Americans as I experience a lot of them, in Hollywood, as being very concerned with money.
Everybody in life is pursuing money: left, right, charity, nonprofits, everybody's pursuing money. Everybody wants a raise. Everybody wants to improve their standard of living. Everybody wants to be rich, and especially those that go to Washington.
So I want to make money. I think it's an OK goal to have. I always felt like I can't ask for that. But why not?
I imagine like most of us that I'd like obscene amounts of money but the people I met and worked with who have those obscene amounts of money and have obscene amounts of fame have awful lives. Really. I mean hideously compromised lives. And I can go anywhere. No one knows who I am.
I've made a ton of money but I don't have as much as I'd like.
I'm a big fan of money. I like it, I use it, I have a little. I keep it in a jar on top of my refrigerator. I'd like to put more in that jar. That's where you come in.
The love of money grows as the money itself grows.
It is not for its own sake that men desire money, but for the sake of what they can purchase with it.
I like the idea of having money.
Hollywood desires money but they could not stand the political content.
I am not biased against the rich because they are rich, but the most lively people are those without money who would like to have some
I wish I had a million in the bank. I like round figures. I am a round figure.
