One of the reasons I really love low budget filmmaking is you don't have to think about that as much. You can have more fun and be more playful and be freer creatively.

Giving should be a part of your routine, just like working out, eating, and sleeping.

You don't get to celebrate yourself unless you risk being mocked or rejected. As an artist, you cannot play it safe. You just can't.

Movies will end up being this esoteric art form, where only singular people will put films out in a small group of theaters.

My biggest fear in life is to be average.

Is it possible that there are no coincidences?

When I was a kid, I had two great guilty pleasures. One was horror movies and the other was martial arts movies.

I find it very eerie when somebody is being really polite.

There are scenes that were right on the edge, but I always try to err on non-indulgence. It's something that I'm very careful about, that I'm just leaning too hard into something.

Money can bring the children into places of power and influence

God wants us to work (whether at home or on the job), but that doesn’t mean it’s wrong to retire. The Levites (who assisted in Israel’s worship) were required to retire at fifty.

I didn't want to be one of those women who wake up at 63 years old and realize they've missed the window of opportunity for marriage and children.

Thats the hard part about sport: as men we havent started to be in our prime, but as athletes we are old people. I needed support. I lost trust and did stupid things.

Simplicity of manner is the last attainment. Men are very long afraid of being natural, from the dread of being taken for ordinary.

It's really too bad that so much crumby stuff is a lot of fun sometimes.

I hear that melting pot stuff a lot, and all I can say is that we haven't melted.

Canada could have enjoyed: English government, French culture, and American know-how. Instead it ended up with: English know-how, French government, and American culture.

You can hold onto anything to make you carry on.
