Del Toro’s heart beats louder when he allows himself to play, dreaming his own dreams and respecting his heroes enough to sully them.
Review: Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities: My Notebooks, Collections, and Other Obsessions

Throughout, Del Toro’s book obliterates repugnant notions of "high art" and "low art."
A highly interesting aspect of del Toro’s films is their interest in the ambiguous, morally muddled hero.
