Exposing something that's painful or raw or not so pleasant. That seems to be the dramatic motor of documentaries, exposure.

I'm a perfectionist I guess. Everyone has to love me.

I would advise puppeteering for any artist. It's a way to break down pretensions. It's a sculpture that can talk. It's a painting that can talk. And it's pure play. I think every artist needs to stay in touch with the idea of playing. The artist should always be playing, always. All art is performance.

I have some sort of performing gene that's just there and I cannot explain it but I want to connect with people through a camera or on a stage. I just can do it. I just have an intuitive sense of it. So I love doing that, I love going into that trance.

I want to communicate. I do; every artist does. That's why you're an artist.

Some of these bulls are gonna' spin those cowboys so fast, they'll look like a frog in a blender.

I hate people who act too cool for school. Just own up to it, dude.
