It is not a happy time when a film doesn't do well... Everything affects you, success affects you and failure also affects you.
When you play good, everything is good, but when you don't play so good, everything is bad. Even when you think there are good things, they still say bad things.
A success that has outlived its usefulness may, in the end, be more damaging than failure.
I was married for four years, then success happened.
The thing is, when I had my first success it did coincide with the end of my first marriage, and because I went on to have a very, very unhappy two years, I don't think I equate career success with personal happiness.
Success breeds success, and failure leads to a sort of fallow period.
The theory seems to be that as long as a man is a failure he is one of God's children, but that as soon as he succeeds he is taken over by the Devil.
It is a career that can be enhanced or destroyed by success.
Success will ruin your life.
