"The directing of a picture involves coming out of your individual loneliness and taking a controlling part in putting together a small world. A picture is made. You put a frame around it and move on. And one day you die. That is all there is to it"
- John Huston
About this Quote
John Huston's quote speaks to the transient nature of life and the imaginative process. He suggests that directing a photo is a method to leave loneliness and create something meaningful. It is a method to take control and develop a small world. Nevertheless, the process is finite and fleeting. As soon as the image is made, the director proceeds and eventually passes away. This quote acts as a tip that life is brief and that we ought to maximize our time by creating something meaningful. It likewise serves as a suggestion that the imaginative procedure is a cycle, which we must not end up being too connected to the results of our work.
