- Nov 07, 2020
You can still make music that people love, but there won't be more innovation. I started listening to electronic music a long time ago. But mostly I listen to rap. I think rap is the most interesting.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I never liked socially conscious rap. I like rap that's physical, that's about a beat and bass and repetition.
- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always try to make films in such a way that it's hard to imagine how they came to be, or where they came from.
- City
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always liked street lights, and I've always photographed them. I probably have a collection of two to three thousand photographs of them, just around the city, mainly at night.

I use to live on this street when I was a kid where there was an old person retirement home, and all of the old people would listen to that band Herman's Hermits, and they would wear white nursing shoes. And they would throw away stacks of VHS tapes, and I would go through the trash and take them.
- Independent
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always - honestly - never thought of myself as an independent director.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've always wanted to be a very commercial director, or I had dreams of making these movies into blockbusters. And with each movie, they tell me it's not that way.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'd always heard stories about how Harpo Marx was the most talkative of the Marx brothers. I found it interesting that someone you never got to hear speak in films would never not speak in real life.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I started making movies, I was pretty young, and at the time I felt like there needed to be more confrontation in cinema - or I needed to make something more disruptive - so in the beginning, those movies were me wanting to play with the rules.
- Like

- Nov 07, 2020
I do have friends who make movies, but for the most part, I never really wanted to feel like I was part of an industry.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My knock with filmmaking is the whole bureaucracy around it, so in some ways, staying outside of it is easier for me.
- Laugh
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've just always liked watching people dance. I can't explain it. It used to just make me laugh.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
What I remember myself from films, and what I love about films, is specific scenes and characters.
- Mind
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I'm directing films, I mostly try to create an environment on set that mimics what's in my mind as to the tone and feel of things. I try to create a place where you feel that anything's possible.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I was a child, the temptation to sin was always a romantic option. This romantic option led me to the cinema, a place where sin was welcome.
- Death
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Cinema sustains life. It captures death in its progress.
- Morning
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I look at WorldstarHipHop in the morning, Bossip, Global Grind, and everything in between, but it's all so quick, I don't even think about it. And I've never been a fan of lyrical or socially conscious rap music.
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Rap is the only interesting music left - it's the only genre that's still pushing itself, and experimenting in a way that I find exciting.
- He

- Nov 07, 2020
What makes Gucci Mane Gucci Mane is like what made Frank Sinatra Frank Sinatra - it's just him. He's trap's Frank Sinatra.

- Nov 07, 2020
I don't even know how people read new fiction anymore because there's so much old fiction that exists that seems great that's unread. It's overwhelming to me. But, I mean, I do read. But there probably haven't been many people less literate than me that have been in 'The Paris Review.'
- Creative Writing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I studied writing at NYU. I graduated high school in Nashville and then went to the creative writing program, and in the first year, that's when I wrote 'Kids.'
- Laugh
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I had these experiences as a kid; I remember certain things happening in school that were horrifying that I would see, certain things of violence or certain things of cruelty, but around that, something might happen afterwards to cause everyone to laugh, and that always blew me away.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have a pretty good family. But ever since I was little, I just felt like I wanted to be on my own. It was the same thing about school.
- Harmony
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was born 'Harmony,' and it was weird because when I was a little kid, I was picked on so much that when I was 13, I changed my name to Harmful. I thought it was a tougher name, so I had it legally changed. And then, I don't know, it just didn't seem to catch on, so... legally, my name is still Harmful, but I just said I'll go back to Harmony.
- Inspiration
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm not a video brat. I don't derive all my inspiration through movies. I get it from a lot of other places, too.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I purposefully try to make films in that grey area, where things are morally ambiguous. It's like life: good people do horrible things, and bad people do good things, and there's beauty in horror and horror in beauty.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I had a guidance counsellor who made me take an aptitude test, and told me I should be a bricklayer.

Everything has to have some kind of a point for people to breathe easy. What's the point of life? I have no clue, but sometimes there are things that just attract us and pull us in a certain way.
- Bubbling
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I had my first camera - I was a child of the '80s. I remember what it was like reusing the same tapes over and over again, and having really bad quality and images kind of bubbling up from under the surface.
