It's taken me 15 years to step behind a camera and make something everyone agrees looks like a movie.

Indie film isn’t dead. It just grew up.

You know, there's a million fine looking women in the world, dude, but they don't all bring you lasagna at work. Most of 'em just cheat on you.

If you're alive, kick into drive. Chase whimsies. See if you can turn dreams into a way to make a living, if not an entire way of life.

Don't let anybody tell you different, man: The main goal in life careerwise should always be to try to get paid to simply be yourself.

More often than not, a hero’s most epic battle is the one you never see; it’s the battle that goes on within him or herself.

I try never to worry in general. Worry is interest paid in advance on a debt that never comes due.

Keep your focus on what YOU want to do - not what anyone else wants or is doing. You lose time watching others succeed.

In this life, if you don't celebrate yourself, nobody will.

In prosperity let us most carefully avoid pride, disdain, and arrogance.

Civilization involves subjection of force to reason, and the agency of this subjection is law.

My horse was in the lead, coming down the home stretch, but the caddie fell off.

In order effectively to liberate oneself from the grip of existing social reality, one should first renounce the transgressive fantasmatic supplement that attaches us to it.
