I try to turn a place on film into a mental state. I always have three or four locations that I repeat and return to in a film, to make it more mythic. But my fiction films are relatively subjective stories, experienced though one character. And that always justifies a little stylisation in terms of landscape.
For a kid in London, Hollywood seems like such a mythical place.
I don't have a deep link with England like, say, Jonathan Coe or Hanif Kureishi might demonstrate. For me, it is like a mythical place.
The road is a nasty place and lonely.

I really wanted to change the idea of what is possible and to show that 'deaf can' and what better place to do that than on national television?
The Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is a unique and biologically special place that should be preserved.
Beware the politically obsessed. They are often bright and interesting, but they have something missing in their natures; there is a hole, an empty place, and they use politics to fill it up. It leaves them somehow misshapen.

I've been to Nepal, but I'd like to go to Tibet. It must be a wonderful place to go. I don't think there's anything there, but it would be a nice place to visit.
It was quite difficult to find a place to do what we wanted, namely to study the neurological basis of behaviour and especially learning and memory, which we were particularly interested in.
As a practicing neurologist, I place central importance in applying current science to the notion of disease prevention.
Never break the neutrality of a port or place, but never consider as neutral any place from whence an attack is allowed to be made.
Net neutrality has been in place since the very beginning of the Internet.
Nevada is a very scary place. This is the worst commission on the planet. I am afraid to bring fights to Las Vegas.
When I saw all of the people I have known all these years, when we got together, it was scary because B.B King and I lived in the same place in Nevada.
I grew up all over the place, but the majority of my years were spent in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
When men destroy their old gods they will find new ones to take their place.
