Humour is like violence. They both come to you unexpectedly, and the more unpredictable they both are, the better it gets.

I don't really expect much from my life. So when I heard my films are premiering in film festival circuits I was glad of course but I thought it was lucky accident.

I thought maybe I could become like the next Van Gogh. I bought a sunflower and painted it, and it looked like the work of a 6-year-old.

Sword fighting in film is not about how good the fighter is, but how good the actor receiving the blows is.

When people tell me I'm an artist, I say, 'What?' It's impossible for me to take the idea seriously.

The thing about art for me is that you can go on theorising your work forever, because it's open to interpretation.
