I'm not a musician, but I play music. So it's a strange thing.

Through the darkness of future past, the magician longs to see, one chance out between two worlds, fire walk with me!

Eraserhead is my most spiritual movie. No one understands when I say that, but it is.

Cinema is a medium that can translate ideas.

I don't know why people expect art to make sense. They accept the fact that life doesn't make sense.

I just like going into strange worlds.

If you have a golf-ball-sized consciousness, when you read a book, you'll have a golf-ball-sized understanding; when you look out a window, a golf-ball-sized awareness, when you wake up in the morning, a golf-ball-sized wakefulness; and as you go about your day, a golf-ball-sized inner happiness. But if you can expand that consciousness, make it grow, then when you read about that book, you'll have more understanding; when you look out, more awareness; when you wake up, more wakefulness; as you go about your day, more inner happiness.
