In Real Life, I Myself Am Kind

When You're A Houseguest And You Leave, It's Nice To Straighten Something Up Or Send Your Hosts A Useful Gift. And When You Leave The Planet, It's Nice To Have Made A Positive Contribution.

Forgiving Yourself May Be For Many People, At Least For Myself, Extremely Difficult. And Then In A Larger Context, I Will Say That I'm Constantly Astonished By Those Who Pray Daily, "forgive Me My Sins As I Forgive Those Who Sin Against Me," And Beat Very Loudly The War Drum.

My Editor And I Remain Very Disciplined. It's Just Sometimes When You're Making A Film, You Get Into The Cutting Room And You See A Scene That's Slowing You Down In A Certain Section, But If You Remove That Scene Then, Emotionally Or Story-wise, Another Scene A Half-hour Later Won't Have The Same Impact. You Just Get Stuck With It.
