Standing on the Line Author:John Sullivan Truth is what drives everyone and everything. Life is what happens on the way towards it or away from it.

I absorb, and then somewhere, somehow, it comes back out on the page, the screen, or sometimes in the boxing ring. Life, as in film, is an alchemical experience. No one can go through it and remain the same. The way I have been able to bear witness to my inner and outer changes have been to make art out of what I absorbed.
