For Me, I Don't Even Like To

I Think That Directing Is The Ultimate Martyred Task Of Filmmaking, That It Has Nobility To It. It Takes Three Years To Make A Film, For The Most Part. I Think It Requires The Attentiveness Of A Mother Hen. I Don't Know How People Raise Children And Direct Films. I'm Sorry, I Don't Know, How Can You Be Good At Both?

I Love My Work, But There Is No Price You Can Put On What You Miss When You Are Away From Your Kids.

If People Knew What Made Hits They'd Make More Of Them, So To Have The Illusion Of Control Over One's Career Isn't Something I Can Even Pretend To Have.

As An Actor, You Hope To Obtain This Mind Meld And Sometimes I Feel Like I'm Chasing A Horse Holding On To Its Tail And Getting Dragged, And Other Times I Feel Much More Velcroed Into The Saddle. And I'm Not The Knower Of Which Is Better Or Best As A Process, It's Just As Random As The Weather In Terms Of What My Subjective Experience Is.

When I Was 12, All I Wanted Was To Be Good At School, And To Do Something Admirable, Something You Can't Take Away From Me Because I'm Not Popular Or Beautiful Enough.
