“As a director you already have a script, you have actors… you have collaborators when you’re a director.”

I feel like it’s a skill that’s passable, but writing… writing is the worst. That’s what I’m doing right now, it’s just the hardest thing that you’ll ever do.

I almost feel like I didn’t pay enough dues, it was pretty incredible. I always thought I’d work with her, I just didn’t think it would happen at this point in my career.

“A good director is one that lets you improv,” that’s ridiculous. There’s some actors who should not be improving and there are some scripts that should not be touched. I think it’s just a case by case basis.

When you’re writing there’s no one to collaborate with, there’s no material to look at. I haven’t adapted something yet, so, I’m sure that would be helpful. When you’re writing an original piece you have nothing.

For me, the hardest part is getting up and writing, that’s the hard part. I always felt like I could teach someone to direct if I really had to.

You know, you kinda think you’re gonna have to work for twenty years before you get to work with Meryl Streep. So getting to work with her…

Look with your understanding, find out what you already know, and you’ll see the way to fly.

At three years of age, the child has already laid the foundations of the human personality and needs the special help of education in the school.

Learning is finding out what you already know.

I think that everybody needs four things in life. Everybody needs something to do regardless of age.

To bring anything into your life, imagine that it’s already there.

To fly as fast as thought, you must begin by knowing that you have already arrived.

To discover and know has always been a deep tendency of our nature. Can we not recognize it already in caveman?

Can miles truly separate you from friends… If you want to be with someone you love, aren’t you already there?
