• Pero hay gente que toma sal con el café. Dicen que le da un sabor peculiar y fascinante. Del mismo modo, hay ciertos lugares, rodeados de un halo de romanticismo, a los que la inevitable desilusión que se experimenta al verlos da un sabor singular. Esperabas algo totalmente bello y te llevas una impresión infinitamente más complicada que la que pueda darte la belleza. Es la debilidad del carácter de un gran hombre, que puede hacerlo menos admirable, pero sin duda más interesante. Nada me había preparado para Honolulu.

• Mis padres nos dejaban a los niños en la biblioteca pública del centro de Honolulu todos los sábados. Nos dejaban allí a las 8 de la mañana y nos recogían a las 4 de la tarde, así que entre esas horas, ¡más vale que encuentres algo que hacer! Me senté en el piso de arriba, en la sala de los cuadros, y me puse a hojear libros de ópera, ballet y teatro. Me encantaban las fotografías de gente con maquillajes y trajes muy elaborados. Estuve en esa biblioteca todas las semanas durante años, hasta que cumplí los trece. Tenía una vida interior muy rica, porque no tenía mucha vida social.

• We were just floored by the kindness of the people here. The minister of the Unitarian Church in Honolulu invited my family over to his office the day we arrived and told us to make it our headquarters while we looked for a permanent residence. When we couldn't find a place for about a week, he let us live in the church; that's ironic, isn't it? But it points up the vastly different intellectual atmosphere that prevails here in Hawaii.

No, it can't be. Yes, it is. There's a lot of guilt out there, show we're not racists, we'll make this person wealthy and big and famous and so forth.... If Obama weren't black he'd be a tour guide in Honolulu or he'd be teaching Saul Alinsky constitutional law or lecturing on it in Chicago.

• In terms of talking with my collaborators as they came onboard - Jeannine Oppewall, our production designer, Dante Spinotti, our cinematographer, and so forth - I said to them, "Let's pretend that this is a place like Honolulu. Let's ignore the fact that all these other movies have been made here for decades and try to come at it with a fresh eye, as if it were an exotic city that people aren't that familiar with. And let's present our own view of it, create a world that's unique to this movie [L.A Confidential].
