'How do you balance the creative with the biblical?' One could pick up the scripture and read it to oneself and you would be communing directly with that information. As soon as you go into film, as soon as there's a camera, and there's an angle, and there's lighting, and there's editing, you're into the adaptation.

I like the fact that we're stripping the icons away. They're the WikiLeaks for the age that we're revealing, with the transparency of the characters. We're unearthing the truth beyond or underneath the myth. I love that aspect.

I've got a vendetta to destroy the Net, to make everyone go to the library. I love the organic thing of pen and paper, ink on canvas. I love going down to the library, the feel and smell of books.

I can only put myself in the process and try to learn through the process. Sometimes it will go well and sometimes it won't.

I think religion might throw up a kind of resistance, but I think if one talks about conditioning we can all kind of understand that.

Whether you're a believer or not, I think there's a huge value in understanding the quality of redemption.

I love new writing, new blood, modern works by unknown writers.
