The theater is like a faithful wife. The film is the great adventure - the costly, exacting mistress.

Perhaps we are the same person. Perhaps we have no limits; perhaps we flow into each other, stream through each other, boundlessly and magnificently. You bear terrible thoughts; it is almost painful to be near you. At the same time it is enticing. Do you know why?

When you feel perpetually unmotivated, you start questioning your existence in an unhealthy way; everything becomes a pseudo intellectual question you have no interest in responding whatsoever. This whole process becomes your very skin and it does not merely affect you; it actually defines you. So, you see yourself as a shadowy figure unworthy of developing interest, unworthy of wondering about the world - profoundly unworthy in every sense and deeply absent in your very presence.

I don't watch my own films very often. I become so jittery and ready to cry... and miserable. I think it's awful.

Everything is worth precisely as much as a belch, the difference being that a belch is more satisfying.

Artistic license sneered through the thin fabric.

No form of art goes beyond ordinary consciousness as film does, straight to our emotions, deep into the twilight room of the soul.
