The best stories infuse wonder.
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
We all fall into our habits, our routines, our ruts. They're used quite often, consciously or unconsciously, to avoid living, to avoid doing the messy part of having relationships with other people, of dealing with a person next to us. That's why we can all be in a room on our cell phones and not have to deal with one another.
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
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
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
Art is messy, art is chaos - so you need a system.
Andrew Stanton
If you want someone’s attention, whisper.
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
Loneliness is, I think, people's biggest fear, whether they are conscious of it or not.
