Additional quotes by Julie Taymor
Where I live is not necessarily in New York City. That's where my apartment is, but I live in Mexico, or I live in Indonesia. I live in Japan.

I can't explain that, exactly, but I put myself into situations where I'm forced to do something, to create, to respond, to see differently.
