The World Is A Strange And Wonderful

Besides All Those Whaling Details, Moby Dick Is About Someone Who's Looking For Something So Huge, Something They've Wanted All Their Life, Yet They Know When They Find It, It Will Kill Them.

I Always Feel Like If Someone Has Stage Fright, I Really Try And Say, "listen, These People Want You To Succeed, They Want To Have A Good Evening. They Want To See Something Really Great. They Don't Want To See Something Crappy. They Don't. They Want To Be At Something Really Special."

My Job Is To Make Images And Leave The Decision-making And Conclusion-draw Ing To Other People.

The Audience Creates Its Own Personality, I've Noticed, In The First Five Minutes. They Will Either Be Generous, Funny, Silly, Withholding, Academic, Analytical, Grudging. And I'm Fascinated With How That Gets Constructed, Because It Happens Right Away.

I'm Thrilled By The Fact That I Made Something Out Of Nothing. There It Is! It Wasn't There Before: There It Is - I Made It! That's Pretty Powerful, And That's The Power That Buddhists Give To Every Single Person.
