When people tell me I'm an artist, I say, 'What?' It's impossible for me to take the idea seriously.

I intentionally shoot violence to make the audience feel real pain. I have never and I will never shoot violence as if it's some kind of action video game.

My film directorial career has been nothing but repetition of one failure after another!

I thought maybe I could become like the next Van Gogh. I bought a sunflower and painted it, and it looked like the work of a 6-year-old.

For me comedy and violence has a lot in common. Just as you expect, comedy always lurks behind the most unexpected of circumstances.

Humour is like violence. They both come to you unexpectedly, and the more unpredictable they both are, the better it gets.

I do all these various activities like painting and writing, comedy and films probably because not that I'm good at everything but because I'm not good at any of these things.

I hate seeing people getting hurt or hurting other people. I hate seeing blood. I am very intolerant of physical pain. I find violence horrifying, so much so that I can't help being intrigued by it.

One thing I hate in movies is when the camera starts circling around the characters. I find that totally fake.

My philosophy is that one shall not resort to violence unless one is resolved to become the subject of violence at any time.

I think I am more of a coward than anybody. It's a very weird feeling. The more I fear violence, the more I'm inclined to depict it in films.

You are destiny for greatness. Arise and shine for the glory of God is upon you.

My pit of love is too shallow, I can't fall deep.

Today, the general masses in this society are in this political-social condition that really encourages people to become rich and become a star and be unique.

Asking doesn't mean you lack wisdom - it's evidence of wisdom.

Nothing grieves a child more than to study the wrong lesson and learn something he wasn't suppose to.

In the battle between logic and crazy, crazy always wins.

[Kaz] is a great scholar, very funny - a true man of no rank!

When we attempt to define and describe God, both language and thought desert us, and we are as helpless as fools and savages.

Love's but the frailty of the mind, When 'tis not with ambition joined; A sickly flame, which if not fed expires; And feeding, wastes in self-consuming fires.

I'd rather be hit by a gorgeous man than an ugly one.
