Haiti, like any place, has its security problems; it has a great challenge in terms of establishing a kind of globally acceptable rule of law.

One of the things you don't have in Haiti is you don't have anybody on crack doing something completely out of - that's unpredictable. Even at the worst times in Haiti, the violence that had happened, the lack of security that happened, was largely predictable because it was politically tied.

That on a romantic level, if you feel it about somebody and it's pure, it means that they do too.

I think you start to prepare the minute you read something.

I don't think you can get away with putting your talents in a toilet bowl and not having them flushed away. Forever. There is a level of murder of one's soul and of the culture that they're supposed to be feeding vitamins to.

If there's anything disgusting about the movie business, it's the whoredom of my peers.

There is no re-inventing the wheel.
