Cinema Is A World Of Imagination.

I Had So Many Professions Before. I Didn't Want To Do This Particularly. It Just Happened.

I Never Wanted To Make A Graphic Novel. As Soon As You Become A 'writer,' You Have To Be Intelligent All The Time... I Like The Fact That I Have The Right Once In A While To Say Silly Things.

But Violence Is News, To A Certain Extent, And People Don't Want Complicated News. Because As Soon As You Realize Things Are Complicated, Your Life Becomes More Complicated.

I Have Been Brought Up Open-minded. If I Didn't Know Any People From Other Countries, I'd Think Everyone Was Evil Based On News Stories. But I Know A Lot Of People, And Know That There Is No Such Thing As Stark Good And Evil. Isn't It Possible There Is The Same Amount Of Evil Everywhere?

If I Have One Message To Give To The Secular American People, It's That The World Is Not Divided Into Countries. The World Is Not Divided Between East And West. You Are American, I Am Iranian, We Don't Know Each Other, But We Talk Together And We Understand Each Other Perfectly. The Difference Between You And Your Government Is Much Bigger Than The Difference Between You And Me. And The Difference Between Me And My Government Is Much Bigger Than The Difference Between Me And You. And Our Governments Are Very Much The Same.
