“You are not the car you drive.”

I think happiness is overrated. Satisfied, at peace-those would be more realistic goals.

I don’t want to die without scars.

So much of making movies is about discovery on the day, what you’re figuring out. If you know everything going in, then it’s not worth doing – it’s already done. I’m interested in finding people who I think have a voice – and a very specific voice.

Most of the time is with the family. Most of the time, is all the time. When we work it’s a very intensive chunk of time. We work for 12 hours a day, 14 hours a day is common. And we’ll do that for a few months and then we get to relax a little bit.

There’s no right. There’s no wrong. There’s only popular opinion.

The best moments can’t be preconceived. I’ve spent a lot of time in editing rooms, and a scene can be technically perfect, with perfect delivery and facial expression and timing, and you remember all your lines, and it is dead.

I believe in the power of journalism. To make informed decisions, you have to have an understanding of the dynamics of a situation. And journalism does bridge gaps and creates dialogue.

Getting a burp out of your little thing when she needs it is probably the greatest satisfaction I’ve come across at this point in my life.

My family worry for me because I’m gonna burn in an eternal pit of fire.

I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it’s up to me.

God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars.

Freaks, they are very prejudiced. You have to have your hair long and talk in a certain way in order to be with them. In order to be the other way you have to have your hair short and wear ties.

Debt gives you the ability to look like you’re winning when you’re not.

Did you ever think how a bit of land shows the character of the owner?

No human being is illegal. That is a contradiction in terms. Human beings can be beautiful or more beautiful, they can be fat or skinny, they can be right or wrong, but illegal? How can a human being be illegal?

To test if you are worrying too much about looking good, observe how you feel when you find out you’ve made a mistake or don’t know something.

He’s just as fucked up as the rest of us. Some of us just wear our creep on our sleeves.
