I do not like proper novels. In proper novels people say things like, ‘I am veined with iron, with silver and with streaks of common mud. I cannot contract into the firm fist which those clench who do not depend on stimulus.’ What does this mean? I do not know. Nor does Father. Nor do the people who write these books.

I'm not a poet. I'm a trapeze artist.

I'm not afraid of dying, I'm afraid of not trying.

"To write is to bear witness to the human condition."

"Cinema is a way to look at the world, to understand it, and to change it."
