James Joyce is a cul-de-sac. [Ulysses is] ... an example how literature branched out and went into, lost itself in nowhere, no man's land.

If I had to climb into hell and wrestle the devil himself for one of my films, I would do it.

For me a true landscape is not just a representation of a desert or a forest. It shows an inner state of mind, literally inner landscapes, and it is the human soul that is visible through the landscapes presented in my films.

Nature is monumentally indifferent.

The power of a volcano when it erupts is so evident, so visible, so palpable.
