Decision Quotes
-

I would have to say the most challenging thing about directing is the sheer stamina because... as a director, you're always doing something. Someone always needs to talk to you.

This is what I think. You can’t have everything at once. Like the pockets in your clothes, there’s a limit to how much we can have at once.

There are things that you can’t get back once you’ve thrown them away.

I don't think scientists can dictate from above what we should do, because it's not a matter of scientific decision. If you want to have everybody living like a Beverly Hills millionaire, then 2 billion people might be too many.
