I was a big fighter when I was younger. In bars I was ready to explode and fight.

In Serbia a lot of people hate me because they want to westernize, not understanding that the western world is bipolar, with very good things and very bad things.

I am finished with cities. I spent four years in New York, ten in Paris, and I was in Belgrade for a while. To me now they are just airports.

I will not cut my film because, because, because, because of the Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

Just because I believe in the identity and integrity of my country doesn't make a xenophobe or a nationalist.

I am a living illustration of Bosnian mixing and converting. My grandparents lived in eastern Herzegovina. Very poor. The Turks came and brought Islam. There were three brothers in the family. One was Orthodox Christian. The other two took Islam to survive.

I've been around some very famous people, but no one has the effect Maradona has; people tremble in his presence.
