“Cinema is a matter of what's in the frame and what's out”

“The cinema is truth 24 frames-per-second”

“The beautiful is powerless but always exceeds what frames it, and what always frames it is discourse.”

“When you are in the final days of your life, what will you want?Will you hug that college degree in the walnut frame? Will you ask to be carried to the garage so you can sit in your car? Will you find comfort in rereading your financial statement? Of course not. What will matter then will be people. If relationships will matter most then, shouldn't they matter most now?”

“Cinema is the ultimate pervert art. It doesn't give you what you desire - it tells you how to desire.”

“All those people who are chained here thinking that their reputations matter and this little shit matters are so freaking shortsighted. Dude, what matters is that you're happy. What matters is your future. What matters is that we get out of here in one piece. What matters is finding the truth of our own lives, not caring about what other people think is the truth of us.”
