Doctors have told me I have a high pain threshold, but I can only know what I feel. I think I'm good at minimising the pain and being indifferent to it.

I hate pain, despite my ability to tolerate it beyond all known parameters, which is not necessarily a good thing.

I don't seek discomfort. But, very often, you realise that what you fear is actually quite ephemeral; something's different, something's unfamiliar; therefore, it must be worse.

I can take more pain than anyone.

I find I have to touch what I am working on every day, or a deep-seated dread kicks in that is very hard to overcome.

To me, discomfort is a gift in the films that I'm making.

Learn to adjust yourself to the conditions you have to endure, but make a point of trying to alter or correct conditions so that they are most favorable to you.
