All That Most Parents Hope Is That

I Am A Lay Historian By Nature. I Seek Out An Empirical Reflection Of What Truth Is. I Sort Of Want Dates And Motivations And I Want The Whole Story. But I've Always Felt, Unconsciously, That All Human History Is That Connection From Person To Person To Person, Event To Event To Event, And From Idea To Idea.

I Would Like To Think I've Reflected The Audience's Lives Somehow, Though It's In This Big, False, Glamorous Arena Of Movies. I Hope People See Themselves Somehow Up On The Screen.

I View My Wife As My Lover, And We Have A Bond That Goes Beyond Words Like Wife Or Girlfriend Or Mother.

I Do Not Want To Admit To The World That I Can Be A Bad Person. It Is Just That I Don't Want Anyone To Have False Expectations. Moviemaking Is A Harsh, Volatile Business, And Unless You Can Be Ruthless, Too, There's A Good Chance That You Are Going To Disappear Off The Scene Pretty Quickly.

I Had To Keep Breathing. Even Though There Was No Reason To Hope... I Stayed Alive. I Kept Breathing. And One Day My Logic Was Proven All Wrong Because The Tide Came In, And Gave Me A Sail. And Now, Here I Am. Im Back... Because Now I Know What I Have To Do Now. I Have To Keep Breathing. Because Tomorrow The Sun Will Rise. Who Knows What The Tide Could Bring?
