I'm kind of hooked to the game of art and literature; my heroes are artists and writers.

You don’t make art out of good intentions.

The world does not need more Christian literature. What it needs is more Christians writing good literature.

Black literature is taught as sociology, as tolerance, not as a serious, rigorous art form.

I think in art, but especially in films, people are trying to confirm their own existences.

Literary critics, however, frequently suffer from a curious belief that every author longs to extend the boundaries of literary art, wants to explore new dimensions of the human spirit, and if he doesn't, he should be ashamed of himself.
