"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in."

"A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later."

"The only way to do great work is to love what you do."
