Negativity is the enemy of creativity.

It's the superhighway to the gold. This causes negativity to go like sunlight causes darkness to go.

Consciousness, Creativity, and the Brain.

Anger, stress, tension, depression, sorrow, hate, fear - these things start to retreat. And for a filmmaker, having this negativity lift away is money in the bank. When you're suffering you can't create.

A lot of artists think they want anger. But a real, strong, bitter anger occupies the mind, leaving no room for creativity.

I look at the world and I see absurdity all around me. People do strange things constantly, to the point that, for the most part, we manage not to see it.
