I grew up in Colorado - went back there, tried to heal myself and grow and learn, then got a call that David Lynch wanted me to fly back to Seattle so he could meet me for Twin Peaks. ↗

I'm fascinated with all kinds of religion, but I'm not committed to any specific one. ↗

I've always had a fascination with vampires. It's not that I'm exactly fascinated with the dark side. It's the human struggle with it. How we deal with those two aspects of who we are. We all have those elements. ↗

All directors are storytellers, so the motivation was to tell the story I wanted to tell. That's what I love. ↗

I had a great education. From kindergarten to John Dewey High School in Coney Island, I am public-school educated. ↗

I think that every minority in the United States of America knows everything about the dominant culture. From the time you can think, you are bombarded with images from TV, film, magazines, newspapers. ↗

People of color have a constant frustration of not being represented, or being misrepresented, and these images go around the world. ↗

Violence is a part of America. I don't want to single out rap music. Let's be honest. America's the most violent country in the history of the world, that's just the way it is. We're all affected by it. ↗

At an early school, when I was about 5, they asked what we wanted to be when we grew up. Everyone said silly things, and I said I wanted to be an actress. So that was what I wanted to be, but what I was, of course, was a writer. ↗

I submitted manuscripts to publishers. This was not so much a feeling that I should be published as a wish to escape the feared and hated drudgery of normal work. ↗
