Ive had to deal, a lot, with my own sense of intimidation at meeting famous people – especially actors, but really any famous people. – Charlie Kaufman
Im not into extreme sports or something. I just live a quiet life. – Charlie Kaufman
When Im writing, Im trying to immerse myself in the chaos of an emotional experience, rather than separate myself from it and look back at it from a distance with clarity and tell it as a story. Because thats how life is lived, you know? – Charlie Kaufman
I think generally Im kind of interested in subjective experience, what goes on inside someones head, that being all they really know of the world. – Charlie Kaufman
I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: try being rich first. See if that doesnt cover most of it.
