If There's Anything Disgusting About The Movie Business, It's The Whoredom Of My Peers.

When I Buy A Nikon Camera, I Have No Tolerance For The Instructions. I'm Ready To Make Some Mistakes Using It And Get Some Bad Pictures Back Until I've Figured It Out For Myself.

One Of The Reasons People Sell Out So Quickly Is Because Even The Talented Think They're Frauds. It's A Culture That Doesn't Encourage People To Believe In The Work They Do.
