I was that kind of kid that was going to the movies every weekend, I couldnt get enough of the movies, and now I get to make them. So I kind of have a one-track mind.

The best stories infuse wonder.

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.

I had never touched a computer in my life before I came to Pixar.

In storytelling, the audience actually wants to work for their meal, they just don't want to know that they're doing it.
Andrew Stanton

The way Pixar has always worked is that we think of an idea and then we make it. We don't develop lots of ideas and then pick one.

I think in the future we might see things arrive the way Prince announces a concert where a few days before the show he announces it and tickets just go up. You might see that with movies and other things.

Loneliness is, I think, people's biggest fear, whether they are conscious of it or not.

I'm a family man, I have kids, and I go to the movies. And I'm just going to make the kind of movie I want to see.
