Something becomes personal when it deviates from the norm.

I'm drawn to filmmaking that can transport me. Film can immerse you, put you there.

The journey for women, no matter what venue it is - politics, business, film - it's, it's a long journey.

I don't want to be made pacified or made comfortable. I like stuff that gets your adrenaline going.

Whereas painting is a more rarefied art form, with a limited audience, I recognized film as this extraordinary social tool that could reach tremendous numbers of people.

It's irrelevant who or what directed a movie; the important thing is that you either respond to it or you don't.

Cinema has the capacity to be so physiological.

There should be more women directing; I think there's just not the awareness that it's really possible.

Films don't cause violence, people do. Violence defines our existence. To shield oneself is more dangerous than trying to reflect it.

I need to have my hands on the DNA of a film.

Perhaps the only thing in my favor is that I am very tenacious. I don't take 'no' very well.

Don’t approach a dragon from the front, a jakkar from the back or a norn from any side. Annuan saying.

Sometimes it feels like it hurts when you make a big purchase, so I really believe that the more expensive things should be gems that you keep in your closet, not trends.

One of my favorite stories growing up was 'A Wrinkle in Time'. I loved that book.

The use of our possessions shows us up for what we actually are.

I think I'm gonna attach myself to the sinking ship that is book publishing.

Any time I consider a new project, I ask myself, is this pushing the state of gaming toward Nobel Prizes? If it's not, then it's not doing anything important enough to spend my time.

I would say that God custom designed my weaknesses. I am not making God responsible for my sins.

If I had to rank my skills, I have a long way to go before I can write a good graphic novel.

I feel like it's impossible to be completely yourself, because you'll always get bored; you have to push your own limits.

I like myself better when I'm writing regularly.
