“I remembered The Death of Ivan Ilych, the Tolstoy novel, which is very beautiful. It’s a guy lying in bed and reflecting on his death and all that. I don’t know, my father used to tell me that depression and all those kinds of sicknesses are for rich people. He said a taxi driver can’t just be depressed and lying there in bed. They have to go and work and fucking get the money for the kids, you know what I mean? There’s a certain amount of reality that some people have to deal with every day and there’s not many time-outs. You have to get the fucking job done.”
