It was like losing an important weight-bearing bone, and I knew I would spend the rest of my life trying to figure out how to walk the streets without it.

I've never really felt that I've had the right hair cut, or had the right clothes.

You can't run forever. There's only so much pavement that the road makers lay down. After a while, the highway quits going north and it just turns into sky. And you can't go anywhere in the sky unless you have a plane or some kind of rocket.

We only have so much time.... Time will kill you – it really will.

I just love working with actors, and I love working with writers, working with designers.

I began stealing a lot of ideas from other directors I had worked with.

I feel that I am just a storyteller, and whether I am wearing the director hat or the playwright hat, it doesn't matter.
