“Your first film is always your best film, in a way. There's something about your first film that you never ever get back to, but you should always try.

The temptation is to use them again, and they're not necessarily good storytelling techniques.”

These indie filmmakers were making their own stuff their own way, all the time. Instant education.”

“At times we are thrown suddenly into positions that seem too big for us and for which we have little preparation. The Lord stimulates our growth this way....

We'll always need inspiration in these areas we couldn't possibly understand without his help.”
