Nothing seemed as scary as waking up at 40 and realizing that I had not lived a very courageous life.

I wasn't actually very naturally good at economics. My brain doesn't work very well, in terms of mathematics.

I feel like developing the muscle of my imagination became a way to survive reality.

A whole film is just about arriving at a moment where you hopefully transfer some feeling to the audience.

A couple of compromises in a row and suddenly you're very far way from the person you thought you were.

I think we're in this exciting moment of Internet streaming storytelling, and it's anybody's guess what that is or what it means. It can take on any form. That's what's so exciting about the time we're in; these filmmakers are coming in and letting the story tell itself as it wants to be told.

I totally love my job, and I wake up every day basically thinking about how can I do my job better. It never feels like a job. It's hard, and it's exhausting sometimes, but it never feels like - I would do this even if they didn't pay me to do it. That's a pretty amazing feeling.
