Fear may very well be a caveman fear of the predator of the giant lizard chasing them - maybe that's what Steven Spielberg connects with so well in Lost World.
Going to New York to do whatever - show business - it just seemed fun. It seemed fun to go to the big city and meet all kinds of different people and maybe be famous. It was just exciting. So I wasn't scared.
The excitement for me lies not so much in interviewing the hard-to-get famous person but the person whom you are about to discover. You know like maybe the character actors who are just coming into their own and you're realizing how great they are.
I don't know how to construct a career that'll make me famous. Except maybe get my ears pinned back get my teeth done and go to America. But then I'll be competing with billions of actors who haven't got false teeth and who are 25.
I didn't know what to expect from a famous movie star maybe that he'd be sort of stuck-up you know. But not Gary Cooper. He horsed around so much... that I had a hard time painting him.
There are people who appear in the magazines and I don't know who they are. I've never seen anything they've done and their careers are over already. They're famous for maybe 10 minutes. Real careers I think take a long time to unfold.
I'm not a very good impersonator my friends maybe but not famous people.
There is no fulfillment in things whatsoever. And I think one of the reasons that depression reigns supreme amongst the rich and famous is some of them thought that maybe those things would bring them happiness. But what in fact does is having a cause having a passion. And that's really what gives life's true meaning.
My dream maybe because of my family of course was to be a painter. I chose in one moment the direction of textiles from textiles I went to fashion.
My family isn't really all that different from anyone else's. Well maybe they're a bit more entertaining.
