If you're a director, your entire livelihood and your entire creativity is based on your self-confidence. Sometimes that's dangerously close to arrogance.

If you feel very deeply about something, it's not possible to sacrifice your integrity about that.

If you can't fully believe in your ideas, it very quickly communicates to a group of actors who need something to hold onto. They need to believe that whatever criticism, whatever comment is received, is meant.

Our entire livelihood is based on passengers coming in here, and there are a lot of islands competing that are cheaper and easier to get to. If you add in a hassle factor, are they going to return?

The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.

One fine day I discovered that more complex plays really have to be directed.
