"Iâ€™ve never seen an exploding helicopter. Iâ€™ve never seen anybody go and blow somebodyâ€™s head off. So why should I make films about them? But I have seen people destroy themselves in the smallest way, Iâ€™ve seen people withdraw, Iâ€™ve seen people hide behind political ideas, behind dope, behind the sexual revolution, behind fascism, behind hypocrisy, and Iâ€™ve myself done all these things. So I can understand them. What we are saying is so gentle. Itâ€™s gentleness. We have problems, terrible problems, but our problems are human problems."

-- John Cassavetes
