I've written films that are violent. I'm not big on sitting and watching violence.

I guess I probably make violent films partly because I can't express my anger in my real life very well.

I was a very violent kid. I think movies and writing and art have been a way of channeling this.

Some of my films are known for the depiction of violence. I don't have anything to prove with that any more.

Violence has been a part of films since the beginning of time. It's been a form of entertainment.

I think violence has always been popular, way before movies started being made.

I don't feel comfortable with violence, and I'm not sure that I film violent scenes properly, and it's something I'm reticent to do, and yet violence is sort of in all of my films.

There is violence in real life but I would never impose violence in a film just to attract the audience.

I don't think violence on film breeds violence in life. Violence in life breeds violence in films.

I don't think movies are the reason why this violence exists, I think it's going to happen whether movies are there or not.
