I was so sad from losing two of my dogs and my mother. I had this vision of all these animals sitting behind bars. They had no control and were scared. That's why I got into fostering and adopting animals out.
To ignore one's spiritual self is unsettling, to say the least. That's a very profound outlook on it.
It's difficult to understand why people don't realize that pets are gifts to mankind.
If I had children, I would be very selfish. I wouldn't be out doing things. But by not having kids, it makes me freer to travel the world and talk about things I feel are important.
Kids shouldn't see all the violence they do these days. But the industry just doesn't care.
The animals are right here, right in front of us. And how we treat these companions is a test.
Of all the projects I've worked on, I've never worked with another director like Billy Friedkin. I think he's a genius.
