My music is also one part of my inner process, and people also seem to connect with me on that - especially the ones who have the same questions for their own lives.

I like to express true emotions under the cover of melancholy: It includes fulfilment and pain, which describes human existence.

When I read a script, I am already in the movie with my music, and I can dive into a world that I haven't seen before.

Sometimes if a script is based on a book, that's what you should do: represent the book.

We taste and suckle each other, and I'm so thirsty he could feed me his kiss all night and I'd still be dying in the desert.

People who instinctively establish a strong network of relationships have always created great businesses.

The entire trend of development is towards abolition of coercive domination of one part of society over another.
