Steven Spielberg Quotes

Steven Spielberg makes Minority Report with the newest digital technology; other directors seem to be trying to make their movies from it Picture Quote #1

It is not my job to compare my movies. I don’t like to compare my films with other movies because I don’t really have that perspective. It is an intellectual exercise, but it doesn’t intuitively come to me Picture Quote #1

You can’t intellectually purge yourself of who you are. Whatever that is, it’s going to come out in the wash, the film wash. What you are is going to be relevant, if not to yourself, to the movies you make Picture Quote #1
