“I just rely on the text to speak for itself and then speak it as I believe it to interpret it, and then just know that the rules of the world that we're creating allow for things to come to life, and then just trust in the process of making a film. Hopefully we'll make a sequel, because if we do, we had such a great time as an ensemble, I think the best thing to do would be to just take the whole cast back. This is Iain's idea and I agree with it. Just reincarnate all the characters and put them back into the world. There's no rules.

“I don't find any difference between Islam and Islamic fundamentalists. I believe religion is the root, and from the root fundamentalism grows as a poisonous stem. If we remove fundamentalism and keep religion, then one day or another fundamentalism will grow again. I need to say that because some liberals always defend Islam and blame fundamentalists for creating problems. But Islam itself oppresses women. Islam itself doesn't permit democracy and it violates human rights.” IfsNeedsBelieveHumansProblemReligionI BelieveGrowsDifferencesDemocracyRightsAtheismOne DayCreatingRootsBlameIslamHuman RightsIslamicRemovePermitStemFundamentalismPoisonous Author:Taslima Nasrin
“I believe that the creative impulse is natural in all human beings, and that it is particularly powerful in children unless it is suppressed. Consequently, one is behaving normally and instinctively and healthily when one is creating - literature, art, music, or whatever. An excellent cook is also creative! I am disturbed that a natural human inclination [creative work] should, by some Freudian turn of phrase, be considered compulsive - perhaps even pathological. To me this is a complete misreading of the human enterprise. One should also enjoy one's work, and look forward to it daily.” ShouldBelieveHumansLooksChildrenArtTurnsLiteratureI BelieveEnjoyNaturalHuman BeingsPowerfulCreativityCreativeCreatingCooksImpulseExcellentPhrasesEnterpriseInclinationDisturbedCreative WorkArt MusicMisreading Author:Joyce Carol Oates
