Tutti siamo scienziati pazzi e la vita è il nostro laboratorio. Tutti stiamo sperimentando per trovare un modo di vivere, per risolvere problemi, per convivere con pazzia e caos.
2/9
The desire to be loved is really death when it comes to art.
3/9
We think identity is genetically given, but I believe there is creative will involved with the decision of who we are going to be.
4/9
So not only can you not imagine dying, you can't really imagine existence before you were born.
5/9
Censors tend to do what only psychotics do: they confuse reality with illusion.
6/9
When I am creating art, I have absolutely no social responsibility. It's like dreaming.
7/9
You're seeing me develop, not only as a filmmaker if you've seen my earlier films, but you're seeing me kind of learn how to be a human, how my philosophy has evolved.
8/9
Do you remember when you found out you wouldn't live forever? People don't talk about this, but everybody had to go through it because you're not born with that knowledge.
9/9
It was apparent to me that religion was an invented thing, a wish-fulfillment thing, a fantasy thing. It was much more real, dangerous, to accept that mortality was the end for you as an individual. As an atheist, I don't believe in an afterlife, so if you're thinking of murder, if your subject is murder, then that's a physical act of absolute destruction because you're ending something, a body, that is unique. That person never existed before, will never exist again, will not be karmically recycled, will not go to heaven, therefore I take it seriously.
