I try to live my life where I end up at a point where I have no regrets. So I try to choose the road that I have the most passion on because then you can never really blame yourself for making the wrong choices. You can always say you're following your passion.

From Darren Aronofsky

I think it's important as a filmmaker, as any person working in the arts, that you've got to try new stuff and challenge yourself and take chances.

From Darren Aronofsky

I grew up in a family with two very strong women, my mother and my older sister, and they were big influences on my life.

From Darren Aronofsky

To me, watching a movie is like going to an amusement park. My worst fear is making a film that people don't think is a good ride.

From Darren Aronofsky

From Darren Aronofsky

Animators have to live life 24 times as long as we do - every 24 frames of a second.

From Darren Aronofsky

I wasn't a big fan of social anthropology. And, luckily, that created room for me to work in visual arts because I sort of ignored my requirements. I think I was attracted to social anthropology because I liked to travel and was always interested in far-off places.

From Darren Aronofsky

You hear stories about directors using manipulation to get actors to do certain things, but I think when you're working with professional actors, it's all about trust. They can do anything you want, it's just a matter of them understanding what you're looking for, and the reason why.

From Darren Aronofsky

I grew up in a family with two very strong women, my mother and my older sister, and they were big influences on my life. I've spent a life loving women, and studying them as much as I can, or am allowed to.
