“When I was nine I wrote my first little script and it was terrible and...” — Gareth Evans Quote

“When I was nine I wrote my first little script and it was terrible and thank God none of us had a video camera so there's no evidence of this.”

“I had made an independent film - 'Footsteps' - in the U.K. that hadn't really done anything, so my wife suggested we head to Indonesia and film a documentary about the indigenous martial art Silat.”

“I have a amazing soft spot for 'Mean Streets' - I just think there's something incredibly raw and energetic about that movie. But I think 'Raging Bull' just shocked me to my core.”

“It's possible that there is a guiding intelligence in our universe. I don't see a lot of personal evidence for an interventionist-on-an-individual-basis-deity. I have friends who very much do believe in that. But I don't.”

“I was always looking for evidence of these common musical roots, but I was too young to know that what I was doing was called ethnomusicology.”

“Circumstantial evidence is evidence.”
