Time is the lens through which dreams are captured.

The things you get fired for when you’re young are the same things that you get lifetime achievement awards for when you’re old.

I always found the film world unpleasant. It's all about the schedule, and never really flew for me.

I associate my motion picture career more with being unhappy and scared, or being under the gun, than with anything pleasant.

Some critics are stimulating in that they make you realise how you could do better, and those are valued.

The professional world was much more unpleasant than I thought. I was always wishing I could get back that enthusiasm I had when I was doing shows at college.

Lots of people have criticized my movies, but nobody has ever identified the real problem: I'm a sloppy filmmaker.
