Andrew Stanton
Loneliness is, I think, people's biggest fear, whether they are conscious of it or not.
Andrew Stanton
I've always felt you unearth story, like you're on an archeological dig.
Andrew Stanton
The thing about working at Pixar is that everyone around you is smarter and funnier and cleverer than you and they all think the same about everyone else. Its a nice problem to have.
Andrew Stanton
I almost feel like it's an obligation to not further the status quo if you become somebody with influence and exposure.
Andrew Stanton
I'm also a huge cinephile, and I have witnessed that to honor the book literally word-for-word never makes a good movie.
Andrew Stanton
There's nothing that you like in this world that wasn't influenced by a bunch of key things nothing came completely clean out of a vacuum.
Andrew Stanton
