• Technology has just been the major progression of the last 15 years - instant communication. That stuff has gone so global. That's what's interesting about it. When someone sits down in front of a computer, it's the same everywhere in the world, and it's the same screen looking back at you with the same Google, and there's no individuality to it. So I decided it would be kind of visually uninteresting to have in my films.

• To me, making a horror movie is about how you can present similar genre familiarities, but present them a little bit differently. Part of what interests me is the nonchalant realism of it, because you don't get that in the big studio horror movies. I like seeing someone walk around a house and sift through the drawers, and things like that, because that reminds me of what I would do, and of weird personal choices that people would make. That, in contrast to seeing someone get chased with a knife, makes it all the more interesting.

• Movies aren't "slow burn," and aren't serious, aren't interesting, because everything from the movie to the promotional materials is telling you that you have to see it between Friday and Sunday, and then you can forget about it. It's not an important movie, it's just a lowest-common-denominator thrill-ride for three days when you've got nothing to do. That does a major disservice to the quality of the films

• I'm very political. Because I read politics every day, so I'm familiar with the world. I approach the films is I'm trying to write what is true, so that supersedes partisan spin, in my opinion. I find partisanship is a thing for cable news and newspaper articles, but it's not interesting for art. I think we all believe what we believe, and I don't think a film is going to change someone's mind.

• Lo interesante es que parece que George W. Bush habría sido feliz siendo presidente de cualquier cosa. Podría haber sido presidente de la Major League Baseball. Menos gente muerta. No habría afectado al mundo a nivel planetario. Claro, habría habido pequeñas cosas. Habría habido escándalos y cosas tontas aquí y allá...

• If we are going to go into a global currency fight against countries like China, well, the US has about 75, 76 billion in foreign reserves. They're going to be up against China with 1.7 trillion in US dollars and foreign reserves, so it's not much of a fight there. It could be an interesting fight though.

• It's very interesting to read why Cornelius Cardew became disenchanted with academic avant-garde music. He wanted to reach as many people as possible and change their consciousness. He wanted to reach the "working classes" in England. The kind of music he was making was very much from the academy, even though it had a lot in common with things like free jazz and improvisation, and he felt that it was the music of the elite, and that he wasn't really speaking to the people.

• What I found interesting in dance is the idea that my work has always been dealing with the nervousness between the human subject as a subject and the human subject as a form. And if you look at my dance films, there are always these cuts between the dancer as a form, the dancer as a subject, and this kind of very harsh treatment of the dancer as someone who's actually drawing with their body.

• I read a lot - surveys of vernacular music. A lot of it is the Harry Smith Anthology of American Folk Music, which I've loved since I was in high school. They had it at the library and I always thought that was interesting, even when I was into punk and stuff. Just the history of storytelling and the amount of melancholy a lot of old music has.

• When I do a record, it sounds more punk and raw. Or it will sound louder, or it will sound more shocking. Or mind-boggling. I'll be trying to figure it out, but once I've got it figured out I'll be like, I know this; I know where this came from. I think art is most interesting when the intention is not clear.

• Como el resto de Estados Unidos, no me interesaba mucho la política hasta que Obama llegó al poder, así que todo es nuevo para mí, pero me entusiasma. He estado viendo muchos anuncios de campaña, investigando mucho. Es muy diferente, será interesante.

• Sociopaths are often extremely charming. They are people who are better than you and me at charming people, at being charismatic. I've heard this more often than I can count: "He was the most charming man I ever met," or, "She was the sexiest woman I ever met," or, "The most interesting person I ever met . . ."

• I just thought that was so interesting, that people that deal with bodies on a much more corporeal level, like the attendants, had a whole different set of criteria than doctors, and that they had this secret knowledge of something. I thought it was strange and interesting, so I took it to my script.

• I don't like my movies. I prefer John Ford's movies. I've made some movies that are interesting, or that have some point, or are more or less beautiful. But I've never made anything big to me, from my point of view. "Big" like John Ford or someone of that kind. I say John Ford because he is my favorite director.

• I think that to be a good artist, you have to have ideas as well as manual skills. It's a blend of the two, hopefully, and there are a lot of people there that can do things well, but they might not be devoid of good ideas or maybe they're not especially interesting ideas, or maybe there's a good idea that a person is unable to execute in the manner that does justice to the idea.

• When you think about being a director, you think about writing stories, putting the camera in interesting places and directing the actors to get your vision, but it's hard to imagine even this process... sitting here nine months later talking about the film and talking about it 20 times in one day. You don't even think about the part where you come to the set every morning and everyone's looking at you to see your mood in order to see what the day is going to be like, and the influence that you wield.

• Cualquier forma de representación tiene un límite; lo mismo ocurre al escribir sobre arte visual. Sigo pensando que es útil que la gente reflexione sobre las cosas de una manera más profunda y utilice adjetivos aunque no sean suficientes, ¿sabe? Siempre me parece interesante qué términos utilizan para referirse a la obra. Siempre es diferente, y eso es intrigante. A veces son clichés, pero a menudo son formas realmente creativas de parafrasear o reformular lo que para significar parece otra cosa. Eso me gusta, personalmente.

• Cualquier crítico te dirá que hay algunos marchantes en los que te da un poco de miedo entrar en su galería, y eso es injusto para ellos, para ti mismo, para el lector y para el artista. Pero yo sólo quiero mirar. Cuando termino de mirar y escribir, me encanta hablar con los marchantes de arte. Están tan vivos y son tan interesantes y asombrosos, desde Larry Gagosian hasta los más bajos.

• Electronic music was just discovery about sound, all our sound options. The core percussions and melodies, they forget about it, they didn't think about those those for a good four, five years, because they were just discovering the new tools and what they could do with them, you know? The big folk revival, I think is a backlash against that. And now, I think they'll probably try to find somewhere in the middle. It's interesting. It's like push-and-pull. It's always like that, you know? Music history is always like that, this repeating evolution of music.

• I've always thought darker characters were more fun to play. They're probably not any more complex or interesting than their good, law-abiding cousins, and I'd always tend to see things from their point of view.

• He estado leyendo La mística femenina, de Betty Friedan, que obviamente ya está muy anticuada, pero sigue siendo relevante. Es muy interesante ver lo lejos que hemos llegado y lo lejos que no hemos llegado con todos estos mitos que la gente pone sobre las mujeres.

• Lo interesante es que la mayoría de la gente que es fan de The Wire, que son negros o policías... la mayoría de la gente de la industria son el equipo: guionistas, actores y directores. Y así entienden lo que es lo que hacemos, por lo que piensan: "Wow, qué increíble grupo de actores increíbles." Es curioso, creo que hay un par de razones por las que nunca hemos recibido ninguna nominación por nada, excepto por escribir.

• I carried on buying paintings, works of art, and Yves Saint Laurent, if I may say so, had a right of inspection. We even shared a common reading of the history of art. It would never have crossed Yves's mind to say to me, "Ah, I saw a Pablo Picasso . . ." He knew perfectly well what was interesting with Picasso, as did I.
