I'm so excited-I think today I'm going to brush all my teeth.

I had a terrible education. I attended a school for emotionally disturbed teachers.

I foresee death by culture shock.

My films are misinterpreted all the time. I don't mind that. Everybody's films are misinterpreted. But there's no malice or stupidity in the people that misinterpret them. You know what you do, but someone else sees it, and they want to talk about it or write about it, and so they misinterpret them.

I'm short enough and ugly enough to succeed on my own.

There's something about my films; they're informed by my sensibility. I have the same preoccupations, the same interests... there's just something in the nuance, and so you always know it's a film of mine whether I sign my name to it or not.

Me and nature are two.
