A man with a talent does what is expected of him, makes his way, constructs, is an engineer, a composer, a builder of bridges.

Inarritu] and Marty [Scorsese] is not be able to be a voyeur and stand aside and watch what they do, because I’m only concerned about what the hell I’m doing every single day. – Leonardo DiCaprioRate it:
My first few weeks in America are always miserable, because the tastes I am cursed with are all of a kind that cannot be gratified here, and I am not enough in sympathy with our gross public to make up for the lack on the aesthetic side.
