Personal quotes
"I don't think Requiem for a Dream (2000) is for children, but I think if you went home and looked at the video games that your kids are playing, you'd be much more shocked." - Mr. Showbiz, November 2000.
"I used to like to break into other people's houses and sit in their rooms. I found it very comforting to be in someone's empty house."
