Children Always Think They Did

I Like To Be Provocative. I Like To Make People Think. I Like To Touch People's Hearts. And If I Can Do All Three Of Those Things In One Fell Swoop, Then I Feel Like I've Really Accomplished Something.

Looking At My Life, It's Very Clear To Me, I Lived So Selfishly.

When I First Came Up, The Whole Aids Epidemic Was Starting, And The Gay Community That I Experienced From The Beginning Of My Career Was Mostly - And Overwhelmingly - Concerned With Staying Alive. And, Also, I Felt Really Aware Of The Preciousness Of Life And Time. The Gay Community And People Who Were Hiv-positive Were Treated So Badly, And I Was Very Disturbed By Things. But I Also Saw A Lot Of Love And Connection In The Gay Community At That Time.

Filmmaking Is Such A Collaboration. At A Certain Point, I Suppose You Do Have To Let Go And Trust The People You're Working With.

My Life Is Not A Game That I Play To Entertain You.
