I love the quality, feel and history of film. I love the pictures of the giant cameras and the way it was.

When you get an idea, so many things come in that one moment. You could write the sound of that idea, or the sound of the room it's in. You could write the clothes the character is wearing, what they're saying, how they move, what they look like. Instead of making up, you're actually catching an idea, for a story, characters, place, and mood - all the stuff that comes.

Some things we forget. But many things we remember on the mental screen, which is the biggest screen of all.

Transcendental meditation is an ancient mental technique that allows any human being to dive within, transcend and experience the source of everything. It's such a blessing for the human being because that eternal field is a field of unbounded intelligence, creativity, happiness, love, energy and peace.

Humor is very interesting to me. My films are not comedies, but there's comedy in them from time to time, absurdities, just like in real life.

Making a film is a beautiful mystery. You go deep into the wood, and you don't want to come out of that wood.

Individual peace is the unit of world peace.
