If you get bored with nothing to do, you are not a writer.

Normally a period movie has a lot of problems with the graphics. They look modern made.

If you're not operating on an instinctive level, you're not an artist.... Reason over emotion is bullshit, absolute bullshit... We suffocate ourselves in rules. I find fantasy liberating.

...there's something about maternal love - it might just be the strongest human spiritual bond there is.

In real life, what scares me is politicians, corporations and people that think they know what the world should be.

There's something worse than not making a movie. It's doing it for the wrong reasons. Then you end up putting three, four, five years of your life into it and you come out with a thing that you're not proud of.

You need to adjust your compass to an obtainable goal.
