“It was Herzog, the man himself. He was so welcoming and kind and not at all the persona you'd seen in a magazine, or in "Burden of Dreams" for that matter. I'd shot the behind-the-scenes for "Bad Lieutenant." It was a very normal production. Nothing like "Burden of Dreams."”
“The New York Times credited me with the rediscovery and revival of red velvet cake. I consider this as one of my great life achievements.”
“Art can mean a lot of things. At the heart of it, art is doing something you really believe in. Like my wife, she volunteers helping underprivileged kids, that's her art. To me, anything that you do that you truly believe in makes you an artist. It doesn't necessarily mean being a painter or a film maker. That's art, but there's more to it than that. As long as you're pouring your heart and soul into what you're doing, that's the weapon.”
“It's not always expected of filmmakers to do stereotyped stories.

“I love my fans more than life itself”

“For me, the more I understand the story of others, the greater I am able to learn and help other people.”
