“I don't think my beard is so important that an editorial should be devoted to it. I recently saw in the same newspaper, in an editorial, a comment about Lal Badshah. Of all my films, of the 94 films of my entire career, Lal Badshah should end up in the editorial of The Times of India! I don't think I deserve it. I don't think my film deserves it. And I don't think my beard deserves it.”

“When I think about the kinds of movies that make me cry, that make tears come to my eyes, I usually don't think about sad films. Sad films, I sort of just look at it. It's movies that are about selflessness, that are about sacrifice, about humans that believe in the good of the human race that sometimes move me.”

“I have become post facto a representative of the country. So if you ask, "Is Mermaids a Canadian film?" — it has become one. It has become a means whereby people characterize Canadian film. I think in the creation of Mermaids, I did see it in political terms. I thought of the underdog. Canada is not a superpower by any means. It's very quietly, comfortably democratic, but it's plagued by a sense of inferiority.”

Patricia Rozema (1958) Canadian film director
