I wrote about what I was going through at the time..

I always say I make pictures rather than take pictures..

You must base the Wisdom on Love..

Do nothing twice over..

I'm not so weird to me..

Documentary has been a way for me to establish myself as a filmmaker. It's my way of proving that I have a language, that I can say something through….

I was very adept at acquiring languages..

Knowledge is not intelligence..
