My Greatest Hope Is That We Transcend

If I Ever Have To Stop Taking The Subway, I'm Gonna Have A Heart Attack.

I Do Find Myself Drawn More To Pieces That I Feel Are Wrestling With The Way That We're Living Now, What We're All Going Through.

Sometimes Creativity Is A Compulsion, Not An Ambition.

Just Because You've Made A Couple Movies, You've Done Some Good Movies, You've Been Nominated For Some Academy Awards, Whatever, Nobody's Entitled. It's A Business. If They Don't See It, I Can Think They're Wrong, But I'm Not Entitled To A $15 Million Budget To Make A Film.

But Work That's Got Real Substance Does Make People Feel, "there's Someone Else Out There Who Relates To My Experience, Or Who Just Helped Me Understand My Own Experience A Little Bit Better." And I Think That's Still Got Enormous Value.
