“Painting, for me, when it really 'happens,' is as miraculous as any natural phenomenon - as say, a lettuce leaf.

“If it were possible adequately to present the whole of a culture, stressing every aspect exactly as appears in the culture itself, no single detail would appear bizarre or strange or arbitrary to the reader, but rather the details would all appear natural and reasonable as they do to the natives who have lived all their lives within the culture.” IfsWholeCultureNaturalStrangeReaderAspectStressDetailsReasonableBizarreArbitrary Author:Gregory Bateson

“If you're a certain type of actor, then eventually stepping into a director's shoes is a natural transition. I've always been the actor who's very focused on the narrative, where my character is in the story, and how I can benefit the story. I've always had a technical aspect of what the lens is, how the camera is going to move, how I can feed the information the director applies within that move.
