I broke things to get attention.

In all fields of creativity you see the result of work that has become habit. Where the creative impulse has become flaccid or has died out altogether, and yet because it is our work and our life we continue to do it.

I was a savage for so many years of my life. There was some seed of determination in me that I was not conscious of. I was mostly consciously getting into trouble and drunk.

Making a film, setting it up and getting it cast and getting it together, is not an easy thing

I can't re-examine work I did in the past with pride.

The greater your powers of self-delusion, the greater will be the apparent efficacy of this untruth.

You don't merely give over your creativity to making a film - you give over your life! In theatre, by contrast, you live these two rather strange lives simultaneously; you have no option but to confront the mould on last night's washing-up.
