I think that when I make a film, I'm terrified that people will come to work and work on something that they're not proud of.

I'm a student of world religion, so to me, it's hugely important to have knowledge and to understand what people are doing.

Life is lived on the edge.

Give me a problem, I'll give you a solution. I just love living. That's a feeling you can't fake. I'm glad every single day. I think that even the camera can feel that I'm a happy man.

When you find things that are tried and true for millennia, you can bet that it's going to happen tomorrow.

You can't win enough, you can't have enough money, you can't succeed enough. There is not enough. The only thing that will ever satiate that existential thirst is love. And I just remember that day I made the shift from wanting to be a winner to wanting to have the most powerful, deep, and beautiful relationships I could possibly have.

I'm motivated by fear...a fear of fear. I hate being afraid to do something.
