Certain actors wanna get paid, they think working in a low-budget movie is being ripped off. But for others it's like, 'Yes, let's do it.'

I'm about my characters.

My job is going to be to direct the film - I'm going to do it. And that's where my job ends.

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 direct, and I make movies I can't finance. I can't raise money. I can't sell anything. I make things.

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

The last day of your life is still going to be a day.
