“Good art provides people with a vocabulary about things they can't articulate.”
“I learned to stop being English about things like love. If you make a film in England about love, it's hugely complicated. It's all about saying what the weather is like, and you're secretly telling someone you love them. You know what the English are like; they're very repressed people. You don't get that in India. India is incredibly un-cynical about love. It's a not a complicated thing. It's me, you, love. Let's go.”
“I would love to learn to play something so I don't have to rely on someone to collaborate with.”
“I'm not God, don't intend to be and hope I never have that much power.”
“My interest in the psychological roots of psychosis has both personal (my brother Andrew committed suicide) and professional origins (I was trained in a behaviorist approach to psychology which - whatever its limitations - at least taught me to see human behavior in its social context).”
“How good it is to be well-fed, healthy, and kind all at the same time.”
“Exercise for the joy of feeling good and getting better. Eat right with the intention of fueling your body with the things it needs to perform.”
“Hard truths can be dealt with, triumphed over, but lies will destroy your soul.”
