“I dislike interaction. The less I say the better I feel. I was naturally a loner. I didn’t want conversation, or to goanywhere. I didn’t understand other people who wanted to share their emotions. Parties sickened me. I was drawn to
all the wrong things: I was lazy

being, and I accepted it. I didn’t make for an interesting person. I didn’t want to be interesting, it was too hard. What I
really wanted was only a soft, hazy space to live in, and to be left alone. Relationships never worked with me. I alwayslost interest. I simply disliked people, crowds, anywhere, except at my readings.”

“A Manifesto for Introverts
1. There's a word for 'people who are in their heads too much': thinkers.
2. Solitude is a catalyst for innovation.
3. The next generation of quiet kids can and must be raised to know their own strengths.
4. Sometimes it helps to be a pretend extrovert. There will always be time to be quiet later.
5. But in the long run, staying true to your temperament is key to finding work you love and work that matters.
6. One genuine new relationship is worth a fistful of business cards.
7. It's OK to cross the street to avoid making small talk.
8. 'Quiet leadership' is not an oxymoron.
9. Love is essential; gregariousness is optional.
10. 'In a gentle way, you can shake the world.' -Mahatma Gandhi”

“Many of my movies have strong female leads- brave, self-sufficient girls that don't think twice about fighting for what they believe with all their heart. They'll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a savior. Any woman is just as capable of being a hero as any man.”

“يقول الشيخ كشك: " لم أكن يوماً أتوقع أن يصل بهم الإسفاف إلى هذا الحد، ففي سلسلة الاستدعاءات ذهبت إلى المحقق نفسه، وإذا التهمة الموجهة هذه المرة يُقال فيها: إنك تتحدث كثيراً عن عمر بن الخطاب.
قلت: وأي شيء في هذا؟وقد قال عبد الله بن عباس:أكثروا من ذكر عمر فإنكم إذا ذكرتموه ذكرتم العدل،وإذا ذكرتم العدل فقد ذكرتم الله،فالله هو المقسط الحكم العدل.ألم يقل فيه رسول الله-صلى الله عليه وسلم-"لو كان فيكم محدَّثون لكان عمر"؟وألم يقل عنه رسول الله-صلى الله عليه وسلم-:"لو كان نبي بعدي لكان عمر"،ألم يقل عنه: " أنت سراج أهل الجنة يا عمر وليبكين الإسلام على موتك؟" ثم ألم يقل عنه: "إن عمر رجل ضرب الله الحق على قلبه ولسانه"؟. فأي شيء في الإكثار من ذكر عمر؟.
قال المحقق الحصيف الاريب:إنك تقصد بذلك التعريض بالحكام.
قلت: إذن فلا داعي إلى أن أذكر شيئاً من عدالة الإسلام،ولنضرب صفحاً عن ذكر حياة رسول الله واصحابه فإن في ذكرهم تعريضاً بالحكام كما تزعمون"
