"The cinema is truth 24 frames-per-second"

"The best writing speaks when the heart whispers."

"Kind words change the world."

"Her words are her wings. She's flying."

"A loving heart, determination, faith, courage, trust, belief, truth, and a solid soul create the wings with which we fly."

"Greatness is achieved through kindness, compassion, and love."

"Vanessa insisted that film was exactly like poetry. Nothing necessarily had to happen; you just had to feel something."

"Believe so brightly that everyone sees the beauty in believing."

"One day, your light will silence the darkness, and you will be surrounded by the beauty within."

"When is now."

"Be the energy you want others to absorb."

"Life is magic."

"Let me just pause a minute and drink in this moment. And if you film it, I’ll be able to get free refills for life."

"Every day is not a day to master but an adventure to experience."

"Love is alive when there's music in your heart."

"When everything gets answered, it's fake."

"Whatever you do, let it be lovely."

"Is everybody in? Is everybody in? Is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin. The entertainment for this evening is not new, you've seen this entertainment through and through you have seen your birth, your life, your death....you may recall all the rest. Did you have a good world when you died? -enough to base a movie on??"

"The moment we cry in a film is not when things are sad but when they turn out to be more beautiful than we expected them to be."

"Women think in [Douglas] Sirk’s films. Something which has never struck me with other directors. None of them. Usually women are always reacting, doing what women are supposed to do, but in Sirk they think. It’s something that has to be seen. It’s great to see women think. It gives one hope. Honestly."
