Read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read, read...if you don't read, you will never be a filmmaker.

During the second war, the u.s.o. sent special issues of the principal american magazines to the armed forces, with the ads omitted. the men insisted on having the ads back again. naturally. the ads are by far the best part of any magazine or newspaper. more pains and thought, more wit and art go into the making of an ad than into any prose feature of press or magazine. ads are news. what is wrong with them is that they are always good news.

Now your kids can't escape. thirteen-year-olds back then, if they didn't watch the evening news, they didn't see news. if they didn't watch the 6:30 or seven p.m. news, they didn't see news. today younger people have much more access to that kind of hard news than you did when you were 13 back then.

I turn sentences around. that's my life. i write a sentence and then i turn it around. then i look at it and i turn it around again. then i have lunch. then i come back in and write another sentence. then i have tea and turn the new sentence around. then i read the two sentences over and turn them both around. then i lie down on my sofa and think. then i get up and throw them out and start from the beginning.

I just don't need cable news. there's nothing that happens on cable news that i don't already know. i'm talking about just the acquisition of information, learning things. what is on cable tv is not that. cable news isn't news. what is happening on cable news right now is a political assassination of not just donald trump, but of ideas and cultural mores that i believe in.

I didn't want to teach my kid how to read, so i used to read to him at night and close the book at the most interesting part. he said, “what happened then, daddy?” i said, “if you learn to read, you can find out. i'm too tired to read. i'll read to you tomorrow.” so, he had a need to want to learn how to read. don't teach children how to read. don't teach them mathematics. give them a reason to want it. in school, they're working ass-backwards.
