The way I look at stories is often from far outside, like a god's point of view, and also very, very subjective.

I like the idea of reading into people's faces when they're not emoting. Some people are fascinated, some are sympathizing.

People have a natural tendency to read emotions out of faces, so when you see a face that is hyperreal but without the life behind the eyes, it's really off-putting and intriguing.

That exact moment when you're about to realize that this might be a dream is my favorite thing.

Shooting videos with lots of effects is like shooting a bunch of puzzle pieces.

I like the feeling of keeping people off-balance and having the audience not knowing where I'm coming from or keeping that mysterious.

A lot of the music video stuff I've worked on is mostly me pitching ideas, and then if [the artists] have notes or thoughts, I'll integrate them into the idea.

At the end of the day, if you don't identify with the main characters, no television show will work.

If artists do have ideas, they're often not great.

Even my nighttime dreams are very, very rooted in reality. They just start to become surreal, little by little.

Obviously the actors are incredible at being the audience surrogates in this crazy universe.

following a process is being programmed, living is doing it in other way.

I liberate minds with my music. That's more important than liberating a few people from apartheid or whatever.

Every human is like all other humans, some other humans, and no other human.

Respect is the most important thing. Be respectful toward others and have respect for yourself.

A good director has to be a captain - he has to work with a lot of people every day.

The American people want change, and they see in Donald Trump a leader who embodies the American spirit.

I love it when a man cooks; it's one of those points that makes me adore a guy. I think it's so romantic and I feel cared for when a man cooks.

Execution halts your breath, helter skelter spiral death.

The assumption that everybody will figure out how much they have to save and then will just implement that plan is obviously preposterous.

When I rely on my faith, I know God wants to reward and bless me but not because of some great act that I did but because of who He is.
