Writing is a form of talking, although writing is such an odd thing in and of itself. People go about it in such different ways.

I used to work as a private detective years and years ago. And my boss gave me this one very simple piece of advice about trying to figure out who to interview first in any investigation. His recommendation: Always pick the people who were fired. Pick the people who are pissed off.

I'm asked unendingly to become involved in series involving true crime and as it so happens the Netflix series that I'm working on is about a true crime.

I don't believe that you can talk about a photograph being true or false. I don't think such a claim has any meaning.

My films are as much concerned with truth as anything in vérité. Maybe more so.

It's a kind of honour when I see how many people are imitating the style of how I make films.

God is greater than anything that man can do or has done. He is not undone by just a train of powder. "Our God is not out of breath because he has blown one tempest and swallowed a Navy: Our God has not burnt out his eyes because he has looked upon a Train of Powder."
