My relationship to reality has been so utterly skewed for so long that I don't even notice it any more. It's just my reality.

Nightmares are a strange thing. Your worst fear is sometimes something you enjoy thinking about, for some strange reason. I don't know why that is, but it's some kind of fantasy that people play out. "What would I do to protect my children? I'd do anything." And then, you watch it play out. I'm petrified of such a thing.

The writing process was some of the most exciting and rewarding moments of my life. It felt a lot like being in a band.

I'd be lying if I said I had confidence in every choice I've made, that I have faith in every film I do on every shot.

I've always been interested in directing. I started acting when I was thirteen years old, so I've had some desire to do something else in my life.

The truth is that the more you get paid, the less freedom you have. They never pay you for nothing.

The idea that a film is created in the editing room - it's only a certain kind of movie that's made in the editing room and it's not one that I really want to see.
