To give a character life in a short space of time, it helps if you arrive on screen with a past.

The life you had is nothing. It is the life you have that is important.

Knowing how to die is knowing how to live. What is death anyway? It's the outcome of life.

Characters who are on screen from start to finish are not necessarily the ones who have the greatest impact.

To be free means to choose, whose slave you want to be. ­

To give and receive love, you have to be in touch with pain, you have to be capable of provoking it and feeling it.

I don't think success is harmful, as so many people say. Rather, I believe it indispensable to talent, if for nothing else than to increase the talent.
