If people choose to live their life in a way that does not confront the more troubling aspects of their experience that's fine if it works for them. But it will probably make them uncomfortable if they come up against somebody like me. So they just shouldn't! They shouldn't read my work!

I think the most interesting parts of human experience might be the sparks that come from that sort of chipping flint of cultures rubbing against each other. And living on the border between Mexico and the U.S. for so many years gave me a lot of insight into that.

In my experience there is only one motivation and that is desire. No reasons or principle contain it or stand against it.

I've told people who have just started to make a film that the one thing you might experience is this feeling that everybody is conspiring against you because you're not necessarily able to tell what's real and what's not.

I am totally against the idea that a Muslim woman should not have the same opportunities as a Muslim man to learn to open up to work help shape the future. To close Islam down to a sexist approach is totally intolerable and ridiculous. It's not Islam.

At Current television is all we do - that's our business. We don't have amusement parks I have to worry about we don't have environmental cases against us we don't have a series of outdoor-advertising companies.

I think any time you have too much education in one certain field that can sometimes play against you.

The people in Iraq lived essentially good lives. They had brilliant health and education systems. Saddam actually created an incredible infrastructure in a very difficult country but they were a Mafia family. If you said anything against that regime or that family you would be killed instantly.
