I have absolutely no interest in rock and roll. I'm just being David Bowie. Mick Jagger is rock and roll.

I'd be a terrible rock artist, absolutely ghastly.
David Bowie

I'm mystified by the stuff that doesn't work. I'm mystified by what's going on in the critical side, too. Stuff I like is getting trashed and stuff that is being praised I think is terrible. I don't really feel in sync with what's happening, but at the same time, what I think keeps me afloat is that I try not to be, and don't want to be, very indulgent. I try to make the films as lean as possible, and to not spend a lot of time crawling up my own ass creatively.

Ray Bradbury
