Everything bad that has ever happened to me has been caused by agents or lawyers.

I hate women, hate them generally, not in particular but in an abstract way. I hate them because one never really learns anything about them. They are inscrutable.

I have an unfortunate personality.

I'm a provincial. I live very much like a hermit: reading, listening to music, working in the cutting room, writing, commercial work - which doesn't take up that much time.

A bad word from a colleague can darken a whole day. We need encouragement a lot more than we admit, even to ourselves.

Fake is as old as the Eden tree.

Ecstasy is not really part of the scene we can do on celluloid.
