That's what great art does - it inspires other artists to do great art, and that's what it should do.
Andrew Stanton
There's a lot of downsides to social media, but one of the nice things is that you can cut through all the BS and go straight to the person and ask them directly. I think that's a wonderful thing. I love talking to people who are true fans or who have a true love of cinema, and so if I can talk to them directly, great.

Andrew Stanton
John [Lasseter] always said that he was Andy, and Joe [Ranft] and I were Sid, and I think that's true.
Andrew Stanton
Most people know me at Pixar as the guy that doesn't like to do sequels or very reluctant to do sequels.
Andrew Stanton
I'm twice as funny, I'm twice as smart, I'm twice as whatever when I'm around other people that challenge me.
Andrew Stanton
Well, executive producer can mean anything in the world of Hollywood, sadly. It can be a bought title in many instances.
Andrew Stanton
Working at Pixar you learn the really honest, hard way of making a great movie, which is to surround yourself with people who are much smarter than you, much more talented than you, and incite constructive criticism you'll get a much better movie out of it.
Andrew Stanton
There's always one sequence in every animated film that's the bane of every animator's existence.
Andrew Stanton
A strong theme is always running through a well-told story.
Andrew Stanton
I've always been shocked and waiting-for-the-other-shoe-to-drop that a girl would ever talk to me, let alone want to marry me. They always seem to hold the power to me, and from my mother to my wife to my daughter, every time I try to really figure them out, and think I've got them pegged, I pay for it.
Andrew Stanton
Drama is anticipation mingled with uncertainty.
Andrew Stanton
