“People just don’t get as engaged in that kind of documentary – they don’t fall in love, they don’t cry, they don’t forget who they are, they don’t ride with you.”

You probably couldn’t have found much daylight between the NRA and the Disney company.

When I sat there in 1971 and watched my grandfather open Walt Disney World, I was a little 11-year-old girl who worshiped the ground he walked on.

I get very close to people when I’m shooting them. We would go and shoot a scene with Lucy, and I would spend the whole time telling her about Rob.

It’s powerfully important for me as a pro-choice person and person who supports Planned Parenthood to have Rob accept me as not a baby-killing horrible person.

Without high functioning legal systems and a well regulated business environment there would have been no copyright protection for Mickey Mouse.

As we realized we had richer, verite kind of people, what we wanted to do is focus in on the verite story.

We brought to the garden at Rob’s office and just sat and watched what unfolded.

Once we got to know each other, we had such similar impulses. We saw in a similar way, and we developed a strong friendship.

There are very few people who have committed more to the pro-life discourse than Rob has. He’s spent time in jail. He has really lived it.

They probably would’ve had had identical demographics for the people who really loved those companies.

I’ve taken it from feminist friends, and I’ve taken it from lefty friends too. But that reassures me. If the right is attacking us and the left is attacking us, that’s exactly where we want to be.

He has committed everything he’s had to it. If in fact he believes that every human life was sacred, I knew that if he had his conscious awakened

Conservative values aren’t really reflected in the radical values of the NRA. And the other idea was that the NRA is not what you think it is

My advice to female directors is not to wait until you feel like your ideas have been pre-certified or until you think you’ve gotten some approval for them.

Then I would go shoot a scene with Rob and tell him all about Lucy. Eventually they wanted to know each other.

I worry that people will think that I have done what I’ve done just because I have access and resources. I hope people will know that I’m just as scared and lonely as anyone else!

The crowd one day cried, “Crucify him,” and the whole world united to murder the Son of God, because in their ignorance they knew Him not.

Cry, the beloved country, these things are not yet at an end.

And I sighed and wept for what could not be–and for all that could have been.

Snow can burn your eyes but only people make you cry.

It is the first cry after birth

The moment we cry in a film is not when things are sad but when they turn out to be more beautiful than we expected them to be.

The next time I will cry is when I die. My life has been that beautiful.

I had to do another couple of albums about this idiot. Then I had to play in front of 37 people. It was horrible. I was crying. I was freaked out.
