Sometimes a scene may be about one thing, and it may end up still being about that, but the emotionality of it comes from somewhere else, or the humor of it comes from somewhere else, and it gives it that real-life quality. ↗

إن كلا منا يعرف في بداية حياته ما هي أسطورته الذاتية التي ينبغي أن يحققها. ولكن قوى غامضة تحاول أن تصرفك عن تحقيق تلك الأسطورة. تضع أمامك كل أنواع العقبات. ولكنك عندما تريد شيئا بحق فإن رغبتك الحقيقية تصبح جزءا من روح العالم الذي أنت جزءا منه. وروح العالم تتغذى من سعادة البشر. إلا أنها أيضا تتغذى من الشقاء والحسد والغيرة حين ينكص الإنسان عن إنجاز أسطورته. ويتراجع عنها. إن تحقيق الذات هو الالتزام الوحيد للإنسان على الأرض. حين يسعى إليه يندرج هو أيضا في تلك الروح الشاملة. ويتآمر العالم كله معه لكي يحقق له رغبته. ما دام قد أوتي الشجاعة لقهر القوى الغامضة التي تريد أن تشل قدرته على الفعل. ↗
