The beauty of life is in small details, not in big events.

I started working with friends of mine and that, to some degree, continues.
Jim Jarmusch
You are the accumulations of your experiences at any given point. And when you express something those things come out. The thing is I hate seeing my films when I'm done with them, so I don't look back as a chart of my life, but I leave it as a kind of chart. Though, it is a photograph, captured.
Jim Jarmusch
