Context: As a filmmaker, I'm not interested in 9/11 [... ] it's too small, history overwhelms it. The history of the world is like: He kills me, I kill him, only with different cosmetics and different castings. So in 2001, some fanatics killed some Americans, and now some Americans are killing some Iraqis. And in my childhood, some Nazis killed Jews. And now, some Jewish people and some Palestinians are killing each other. Political questions, if you go back thousands of years, are ephemeral, not important. History is the same thing over and over again.
“But keep the wolf far thence, that's foe to men,
For with his nails he'll dig them up again.”
Act V, scene iv.

“Oops!…I did it again
I played with your heart
got lost in the game
Oh baby baby”
