More From Charlie Kaufman
- "I’ve kind of come to the conclusion that what passes for realism in movies has nothing to do with reality and that my stuff is more realistic than that."
- "When I’m writing, I’m trying to immerse myself in the chaos of an emotional experience, rather than separate myself from it and look back at it from a distance with clarity and tell it as a story. Because that’s how life is lived, you know?"
- "I think you just assume that your memory is just sort of a video playback of your experience, but it’s nothing like that at all. It’s a complete refabrication of an event and a lot of it is made up, because you’re filling in spaces."

- "It is often difficult to watch yourself onscreen, especially 60-feet high. As an actor, it is an uncomfortable experience."― Chris Hemsworth
- "I think top scientists need to be compensated at a different scale in society. Somebody with experience will tell you that true scientists are not motivated by money – they are motivated by the quest itself. That is true. But I think an additional recognition will not hurt."― Yuri Milner
- "In almost everything, experience is more valuable than precept."― Quintilian
