“From this moment on, live the Eucharist fully; be persons for whom the Holy Mass, Communion, and Eucharistic adoration are the center and summit of their whole life.”

I don’t write any kind of sequel or remake.

In the grand scheme of nature, I believe that it is very natural that animals eat animals, and that humans eat animals. It is only in the last couple of decades that meat-processing factories have come to rise, and I believe we should take time to reflect on that reality.

I really hate the creature film convention that says you have to wait until the end to see the monster. One hour and all you’ve seen is just the tip of the creature’s tail.

My favourite genre lies inside myself, and as I follow my favourite stories, characters and images, it sums up to a certain genre.

I don’t intentionally make my films with the express goal of surprising the viewer.

He that sees the beauty of holiness or true moral good, sees the greatest and most important thing in the world.

Holiness appeared to me to be of a sweet, pleasant, charming, serene, calm nature; which brought an inexpressible purity, brightness, peacefulness and ravishment to the soul.

A true love for God must begin with a delight in His holiness, and not with a delight in any other attribute; for no other attribute is truly lovely without this.

When this holy attribute is established in man, all the divine qualities will also become realized.

All Art is a gift of the Holy Spirit. When this light shines through the mind of a musician, it manifests itself in beautiful harmonies. Again, shining through the mind of a poet, it is seen in fine poetry and poetic prose.

When you get inside go change into something loose and baggy. And for all that’s holy, please wear panties and a bra.

Your heartbeat is a holy thing.

To desire and expect nothing for oneself and to have profound sympathy for others is genuine holiness.
