Yes, it looks bleak. But you are still alive now. You are alive with all the others, in this present moment. And because the truth is speaking in the work, it unlocks the heart. And there’s such a feeling and experience of adventure. It’s like a trumpet call to a great adventure.

You do a sort of paper thing, and then you put some images in-between, and that's your film. And that's so not what I think is a good documentary.

Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years; people grow old by deserting their ideals.
