Myth is very powerful and fiction is very powerful.

You always want to unmask the person and find out who they are - that feeling of wanting what you can't have.

There's nothing I love more than a great truth-is-stranger-than-fiction story.

In terms of legend, people do have a need, but I think you can't have a legend without the work or the art that comes before it.

For me personally, I love art and artists of all mediums and we've seen madness is more often than not present in the greatest painters, poets, writers, and songwriters in history.

When I read any book, if it's really good I get lost in the writing whether it's fiction or non-fiction. I'm in the story not thinking about who wrote it.

What is fiction or cinema if not escape?
