With me it's always about first impressions.

I believe that first impressions are very important.

Appearances are a glimpse of the unseen.

I think the problem I have is that first impressions are the ones that stick with people. And people's first impressions of me are obviously from the film, from 'Gregory's Girl.'

People are like stained - glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

We don't know where our first impressions come from or precisely what they mean, so we don't always appreciate their fragility.

I've always been interesting in the lighting aspect and always listened to what they were saying.

I'm very wary with impressions - I don't think I'm very good at impressions, I hate doing them.

I'm saying look, here they come, pay attention. Let your eyes transform what appears ordinary, commonplace, into what it is, a moment in time, an observed fragment of eternity.

For me, when I 'discover' a story, there is a feeling of buoyancy and clarity, perhaps similar to early morning out on a prairie highway, when darkness lifts and reveals the outline of farmhouses and copses of trees in the distance.
