Life Is Too Short To Be Lived

I'm Not A Politician. I Don't Know How To Solve The Problems Of The World. But As An Artist, I Have One Duty: To Ask Questions.

I Was In Love With Darth Vader. He Was Extremely Sexy To Me. Once I Had Almost A Sexual Dream About Darth Vader. At The Moment He Was About To Pull His Helmet Off, My Husband Woke Me Up And I Was So Annoyed. I Told Him, "i Was On My Way To Kiss Darth Vader."

The Novels Have Done So Well Because The Drawings Are Abstract, Black-and-white. This Adds To The Universality Of The Story. "persepolis" Also Has Dreamlike Moments, And The Drawings Help Maintain Cohesion And Consistency.

I Like To Make Mechanical Stuff. Once I Make A Film I Have To Do Whatever I Can Make Onstage I Make It Onstage.

I Wanted To Make A Real Love Story With A Bad Ending, Because A Love Story That Ends Good Is The Life Of Everyone - You And I, For Example. I Always Say To People, You Know, If Romeo And Juliet Got Married, Nobody Would Care About Them. Imagine Romeo And Juliet, Six Kids Yelling, Mama, Mama, Papa, Papa.
