“Spike Lee always keeps a distance with actors. He's not always joking around; a lot of directors joke around to get close to the actor. He has a different style. You never know what he's thinking, and you're kind of nervous. When you're nervous, you're more devoted because you want to be good.”
Bai Ling
“The universe does not jest with us, but is in earnest”

Winston Churchill
