Quotes

Justin: Fame is something I think happens as a result of trying to do good work. If you're trying to be famous, your work usually suffers. (edit)
Justin: There's a logic to dreams that doesn't necessarily follow linear narrative. You don't know why things happen, it's your subconscious pushing you, to give you information. (edit)
Justin: Unless you hit your television with a sledgehammer, you're not going to be able to be an individual. (edit)
Justin: I think we need to tell stories that reflect our world. It's the old story of Michelangelo meeting the Pope, who was upset at the images of "Hell," and Michelangelo said, "My job is to paint the world, yours is to change it." We can be reflective in movies and television, but we can't be irresponsible. (edit)
Justin: As long as no one's killing one another, I don't think there's anything wrong with throwing a brick through the window of McDonalds. I'm sort of inspired when I see people thinking like that. (edit)
