Submitting myself for awards feels like a weird kind of horn-blowing that's not comfortable for me. I'm really happy when someone likes my work, but I don't like marketing myself, putting myself on display.
You know, he's a very talented, skillful surgeon. He won awards for being the top plastic surgeon in Houston several years in a row. I?m hopeful he can get back to his life of helping other people.
You know, Equal Interest played at the Bell Atlantic Jazz Festival Awards and not one musician from that category was even thought of. Even thought of! The idea, that here's this vital energy, and that element doesn't even know it exists!
In India I've been to all the award functions, but that was in Hindi; now it's in English so it's a much bigger scale.
My first movie, I got nominated for a Canadian Oscar-for Meatballs. For MEATBALLS. And who am I up against? George C. Scott. So he wins the award and I stand up and go, 'That's it-let's get the hell outta here.'

'Groundhog Day' was one of the greatest scripts ever written. It didn't even get nominated for an Academy Award.
If I want to be up for an Academy Award, I'm either going to have to play a tour de force of some kind or have a tracheotomy just before the nominations.
There are no awards in Hollywood for being an idiot.
For me the best thing about winning an award is when the people cheer for your win. When you can see that the people are really happy that you are winning something, that's the most reward thing in the world.
