Our society is so much about fidelity being this thing that's sacred, and people are miserable. They're suicidal. It brings more depression than anything else on earth, probably. Sorry to say that, guys.

The camera can move, you can make the shots, blah blah blah, but as long as the actors are good, you have something.

Too many women throw themselves into romance because they're afraid of being single, then start making compromises and losing their identity. I won't do that.

The people that are succeeding have often had a mentor of some kind. I think it makes a huge difference.

I wasn't born an artist. I was really good in science as a kid. I probably shouldn't have been an artist because I'm much more interested in science. But I was raised by artists. I can't really escape it.

I can't really explain the feeling of acting. It makes you the most insecure you can possibly be.

The way I work is that I never let people do an assembly. I don't like it because it shapes the film in a way that I can't really control. To me, editing is making the film and it's a huge process and editors are under-rated.
