I avoid confrontation. When I'm on set I never snap at anyone. I don't have a temper.

Never take no for an answer. It took me 20 years between the time I wrote my first screenplay and the time I actually got money to direct a movie.

I find most films about fashion terrible because they are caricaturish.

I like doing sequels. Basically, I think it's a fun thing to follow characters in time. In real time.

I think I do find humor in disorder, and reality is disorder.

I always feel this pressure of being a strong and independent icon of womanhood, and without making it look my whole life is revolving around some guy. But loving someone, and being loved means so much to me. We always make fun of it and stuff. But isn't everything we do in life a way to be loved a little more?

I went to film school to make films just because you're in control of the story.
