“This was my first hint of the truism that depression is anger turned inward; thus women are twice as likely to be depressed.”

My films are therapy for my debilitating depression. In institutions people weave baskets. I make films.

“This was my first hint of the truism that depression is anger turned inward; thus women are twice as likely to be depressed.” 

Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.

What depressed me most is, of course, the misfortune of my poor parents who have not had a happy moment for so many years. What further hurts deeply is that as an adult man, I have to look on without being able to do anything.

There is no torture that a woman would not endure to enhance her beauty.
