There's no way to approach anything in an objective way. We're completely subjective; our view of the world is completely controlled by who we are as human beings, as men or women, by our age, our history, our profession, by the state of the world.

I actually think I'm probably more interested in structure than most people who write screenplays, because I think about it.

I think generally I'm kind of interested in subjective experience, what goes on inside someone's head, that being all they really know of the world.

I think of myself as a guy who tries to write screenplays and now has tried to direct one. Anything more than that is meaningless and it gets in the way of being a real human being.

I think everything I do is based on my experience in the world in one way or another.

I have ideas written down some places, but usually I can't find them. I'm not very organized.

There is so much crap in the world, both in show and other businesses, that I try to be vulnerable myself, in the hopes that there is some truth I can get to, that makes people feel less alone in the world.
