You dream as an actor's director of letting moments breathe through two-shots.

I don't smoke and I don't want to smoke. I am not a fan of gratuitous smoking in films.
Edward Norton

You know, independent films have been institutionalized, practically. Every studio has got a boutique arthouse label.
Edward Norton
Image
People are worried about the degree to which corporate interest is starting to threaten human interest.
Edward Norton
Image
When I was very small, I had that first-time-you-see-a-play experience, which immediately made me want to act, because it seemed like this incredible outlet for something I was already doing fairly compulsively anyway, which was putting on hats and costumes and doing funny voices. It was a very natural compulsion for me.

I don't flatter myself - I'm not a scientist, I'm not a conservation expert.

People say you can't make movies about your politics or the environment. And, generally speaking, I completely divide those sides of my brain.
Edward Norton

I like to get into a lot of things besides movies. I've been very involved with a few specific efforts. We built this park in New York and it's been a very successful project... I worked on a conservation project in East Africa... Too much of this type of stuff can get you wrapped up in your own work and I love it.

Edward Norton
Image
Sometimes their oppression of emotion and the weird way it comes out is more interesting than painting it in bold primary colors.
Edward Norton
Image
You always end up getting involved in things because of, you know, the strange things your life brings you into contact with.
Edward Norton
Image
I'm pretty busy in my life and I'm very aware of what it takes to direct a movie. It takes a lot out of you it takes a lot out of the rest of your life, from other people in your life. I don't lie around hungering for that consumption very often.
Edward Norton
Image
I get heartbroken flying into L.A. It's just this feeling of unspecific loss. Can you imagine what the San Fernando Valley was when it was all wheat fields? Can you imagine what John Steinbeck saw?
Edward Norton
Image
There are tens of thousands of charities and hundreds of thousands, getting towards millions, of people now using it. And when I flip through it, I'm just blown away by people.

As we say in the sewer, time and tide wait for no man.

You know, independent films have been institutionalized, practically. Every studio has got a boutique arthouse label. There's like, 18 different independent film-financing funds. In fact, I think the children of those films are getting made. A more interesting question is whether those films are going to get seen and appreciated.

I don't have anything to prove to anybody, which is a lovely place to be.

Everyone keeps saying the western's dead, but it's not.
