As barbaric is we are, it's a miracle we haven't blown ourselves off the face of the earth so far.

I don't need to push myself. I don't need to sharpen my own knife and slit my throat. I'm trying to chill it and find an equilibrium and a balance to my work.

I'm in a house where if the washing machine shuts off, it sings a song. If iPad gets a message, it sings a song. I'm living in a real postmodern time - every single thing sings to you to tell you it's started, it's stopped, you've got a message, you didn't get a message.

A script is not a piece of literature, it's a process.

That's the thing about making a movie: You never finish editing. They just take it away from you.

No one can stop me from talking about my movie.

When I talk about drugs and alcohol, I'm talking about sex addiction, gambling addiction, eating addiction, throwing-up addiction. I'm not talking about mental illness.
