I'm Jewish. Went to a Jewish school.

I'm really so singular, I am only able to work on one thing at a time. I really am.

I don't feel, 'I've made a great film'; I feel I've made what I set out to make.

I’ve always been better at informing the audience through images than through words, but I took on a script that was so dialogue intensive, that the words had to do all the informing.

You have to understand where the camera needs to me. There were times where you were suddenly aware where the cameras were, then you were in a different place and it didn't feel like the same movie.

I've never been happy doing stock work; I've never been happy thinking that I haven't changed something.

I don't put on my best clothes to make a film, my Sunday best.

I'm not the kind of filmmaker who's going to go from one thing to the next. I often wish I was that filmmaker, but I'm just not.

We tend to forget that everything has an ending, so enjoy it while you can still see it around you.

Books are readable drugs.

I am unable to change myself, Can't adopt change so easily.So I just start see things differently

education without inspiration is only recipe for desperation

...I would be the last person to say that madness is not a solution.

Everybody can identify with somebody in the Hundred Acre Wood.

Some plague the people with too long sermons; for the faculty of listening is a tender thing, and soon becomes weary and satiated.

Because being so dependent on people scares me.

We should lay in a store of food, but never of pleasures; these should be gathered day by day.

Play touches and stimulates vitality, awakening the whole person - mind, body, intelligence and creativity.
