I'm not a craftsman of graphics or art or film. I'm more of an idea generator and manufacturer.

Grief and memory go together. After someone dies, that's what you're left with. And the memories are so slippery yet so rich.

My graffiti really comes more from a May '68, sort of Situationist vibe than the hip-hop world. I think a real graffiti artist would find me a poser.

There's great sadness and life doesn't work out like you would want, on a lot of levels, but there's no need to feel all alone. This happens to everybody, so there's no self-pity. This is the ride that humans are on, and all of it is essential for our natural part of it.

Life is too short for a half-rack.

No one leaves the edit room thinking, 'Yeah, I nailed that one!' Everyone I know goes into their first premiere or their first screening thinking, 'I screwed up so bad. I'm sorry, I messed up.' It's just a real common feeling.

The littlest thing can have the strongest connection when you're grieving. Your Proustian, poetic nerve is turned up to ten.
