Sundance felt like a natural fit. I love coming here, and I do think that this festival suits my films rather than most of the festivals I've been to. I'm not going to Cannes, you know.

I'm used to working with restrictions and that's when you come up with the more creative stuff.

I never wanted to be a filmmaker. I still, sometimes, think I got sidetracked by this, like this is a tangent. My main thing was painting; I was just going to do that.

The films I like to watch are when they make it relatable to human audiences.

To make filmmaking interesting to me, I want to keep learning things.

I constantly remind myself that there are terrible movies out there. I try to watch them, some of them, to give myself an understanding of what not to do.

I hate the modern day the kids live in. I don't think it's very cool. Everyone's interconnected.

I've loved comics since I was a kid, collected them, I've always dreamed of being involved in comics.

It's so hard to find the time. I only have one kid and it's hard with one kid. I can't imagine people who have more than that.

Africa has decided to take matters of instability into its own hands.

We know what we should and shouldn't put in our mouths, but in those times that pull on our souls, we revert to what's emotionally comfortable.

I enjoy experimenting and trying new beauty products. It is fun to try new looks!

Opportunity is coy, is swift, is gone, before the slow, the unobservant, the indolent, or the careless can seize her.

Every step of the way I think you learn something that makes you a better player, and all those lessons really come out when it matters the most in a championship.
