I Think Of Poets As Outlaw Visionaries

Music, To Me, Is The Most Beautiful Form, And I Love Film Because Film Is Very Related To Music. It Moves By You In Its Own Rhythm. It's Not Like Reading A Book Or Looking At A Painting. It Gives You Its Own Time Frame, Like Music, So They Are Very Connected For Me. But Music To Me Is The Biggest Inspiration. When I Get Depressed, Or Anything, I Go "think Of All The Music I Haven't Even Heard Yet!" So, It's The One Thing. Imagine The World Without Music. Man, Just Hand Me A Gun, Will You?

Now In The States If You Look At The Tv, You See The Advertisements, The Tv Programmes, The Pop Videos, And The Movies, They're All The Same Style. I Think It's Very Condescending To The Audience To Assume They Only Have A Three Second Attention Span And So They Don't Leave Anything On The Screen For Any Longer. I Don't Understand That.

Film Relates To Almost Every Other Form Of Expression, But Poetry Is A Bit Abstract In Its Strength And Sometimes Even The White Spaces On The Page Are Evocative Almost As Much As Where The Text Is. Certain Poets Have Played With That.

I Have To Tell Everyone That When I Finish A Film And It Goes Out And Is Released, I Never Look At My Films Again. I Don't Like Looking Back. I Don't Even Like Talking About 'em! So I'm Really Digging Back In My Memory Because I Don't Like To Sit And Look At My Films Again.

Nothing Is Original. Steal From Anywhere That Resonates With Inspiration Or Fuels Your Imagination Authenticity Is Invaluable; Originality Is Non-existent. And Don’t Bother Concealing Your Thievery - Celebrate It If You Feel Like It.
