Janet Fitch

Memory is the fourth dimension to any landscape.

Dostoevsky was my literary idol for a long time.

To make films, you have to have boundless energy; you have to work and play with others really, really well, and I'm really a more contemplative kind of person. I like to sit at home and think, a lot.

If you compare NASA's annual budget to explore the heavens, that one year budget would fund NOAA's budget to explore the oceans for 1,600 years.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

All of my films have been autobiographical - it's all I've got to go on.
