I’m very phobic about flying, but I’m also drawn to it Picture Quote #1

The cinema began with a passionate, physical relationship between celluloid and the artists and craftsmen and technicians who handled it, manipulated it, and came to know it the way a lover comes to know every inch of the body of the beloved. No matter where the cinema goes, we cannot afford to lose sight of its beginnings Picture Quote #1

And as I’ve gotten older, I’ve had more of a tendency to look for people who live by kindness, tolerance, compassion, a gentler way of looking at things Picture Quote #1

When everything is added up, the frequent blows weighted against the sporadic triumphs, this is I have to say not just a vocation, it’s a great gift. But you also know this, for your work, for your passion, every day is a rededication. Painters, dancers, actors, writers, filmmakers. It’s the same for all of you, all of us. Every step is a first step. Every brush stroke is a test. Every scene is a lesson. Every shot is a school. So, let the learning continue Picture Quote #1

I think all the great studio filmmakers are dead or no longer working. I don’t put myself, my friends, and other contemporary filmmakers in their category. I just see us doing some work Picture Quote #1

I don’t think there is any difference between fantasy and reality in the way these should be approached in a film. Of course if you live that way you are clinically insane Picture Quote #1

I’m not videotaping my life, but in a way I am trying to put certain things about myself on canvas Picture Quote #1

On the one hand, you’re the same person, but as you get older, you change somewhat, and you never know how it’s going to affect your work Picture Quote #1

Movies touch our hearts, and awaken our vision, and change the way we see things. They take us to other places. They open doors and minds. Movies are the memories of our lifetime. We need to keep them alive Picture Quote #1

Part of making any endeavour is that each one has it's own special problems. It's the nature of the process Picture Quote #1

Very often I've known people who wouldn't say a word to each other, but they'd go to see movies together and experience life that way Picture Quote #1

Now more than ever we need to talk to each other, to listen to each other and understand how we see the world, and cinema is the best medium for doing this Picture Quote #1

Young film makers should learn how to deal with the money and learn how to deal with the power structure. Because it is like a battle Picture Quote #1

I look for a thematic idea running through my movies and I see that it’s the outsider struggling for recognition. I realize that all my life I’ve been an outsider, and above all, being lonely but never realizing it Picture Quote #1

More personal films, you could make them, but your budgets would be cut down Picture Quote #1

Violence is not the answer, it doesn’t work any more. We are at the end of the worst century in which the greatest atrocities in the history of the world have occurred... The nature of human beings must change. We must cultivate love and compassion Picture Quote #1

I was saying as a joke the other day that I love film editing, I know how to cut a picture, I think I know how to shoot it, but I don’t know how to light it. And I realize it’s because I didn’t grow up with light. I grew up in tenements Picture Quote #1

If we just sit and exist, and understand that, I think it will be helpful in a world that seems like a record that’s going faster and faster, we’re spinning off the edge of the universe Picture Quote #1

You gotta understand, when moving images first started, people wanted sound, color, big screen and depth Picture Quote #1
