"I want to be an artist, not an erotic freak. I don’t want to be sold to the public as a celluloid aphrodisiac."

Previous Quote

Marx was wrong. Religion is not the opiate of the people. Opium suggests something soporific, numbing, dulling. Too often religion has been an aphrodisiac for horror, a Benzedrine for bestiality. At its best it has lifted spirits and raised spires. At its worst it has turned entire civilizations into cemeteries.
