On everything I do I'm always taking someone's money, whether it's a movie studio or a record label. Somebody's paying for it, and I'm always respectful of that. But I'm never going to compromise.

I'm not one to intellectualize why I did something.

Doing a documentary is about discovering, being open, learning, and following curiosity.

If I leave my phone in the car and go to dinner or something for a few hours, I'm very proud of myself.

The past is just a story we tell ourselves.

Don't differentiate between 'This is a job' and 'This is what I'm doing for fun.' It's all simultaneous.

As a parent, your perspective of childhood is through the eyes of this person that you care so much about and you just want the world to be great for them. You want their life to be easy and happy.
