More quotes by George Lucas
Even in high school I was very interested in history - why people do the things they do. As a kid I spent a lot of time trying to relate the past to the present.
George Lucas
When a movie comes out, I always go off on a beach so I miss all the craziness that goes on, all the hoopla, and the hype and the success, and how much it's making, or whether it's doing good or whether it's doing bad. I just miss it all. I don't talk to anybody, and a couple weeks later I come back and it's all over with.
George Lucas
The story being told in 'Star Wars' is a classic one. Every few hundred years, the story is retold because we have a tendency to do the same things over and over again. Power corrupts, and when you're in charge, you start doing things that you think are right, but they're actually not.
George Lucas
Success is a very difficult thing. It's much more difficult than one might think.
George Lucas
I think that Lethal Weapon-style dialogue is overused, it's a necessary aspect of high action films where you have to have the smart retort. You have to say I'll be back baby and stuff. It's not my style.
George Lucas
Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.
George Lucas
Real love is on the inside. It's somebody you have a common ground with, you share the same values, you share the same interests, you share the same humor, you share all those things that are things that will last you the rest of your life.
George Lucas
I am very concerned about our national heritage, and I am very concerned that the films that I watched when I was young and the films that I watched throughout my life are preserved, so that my children can see them.
George Lucas
I have a strong feeling about interesting people in space exploration. . . . And the only way it's going to happen is to have some kid fantasize about getting his ray gun, jumping into his spaceship, and flying into outer space.
George Lucas
Storytelling is about two things it's about character and plot.
George Lucas
Someday you're going to have to learn to separate what seems to be important from what really is important.
George Lucas
But having a really good understanding of history, literature, psychology, sciences - is very, very important to actually being able to make movies.
George Lucas
The underlying issues, the psychological motives, in all my movies have been the same, he said. Personal responsibility and friendship, the importance of a compassionate life as opposed to a passionate life.
George Lucas
I've had much more down in my life than I've had up. And much more struggle. First of all, when I went into the film school everybody said, What are you doing? This is a complete dead-end for a career.
George Lucas
Today it is an amazing, if unexpected, legacy of Star Wars that so many gifted writers are contributing new stories to the Saga.
George Lucas
No! Try not. Do, or do not. There is no try.
George Lucas
If you want to be successful in a particular field of endeavor, I think perseverance is one of the key qualities.
George Lucas
I loved photography and everybody said it was a crazy thing to do because in those days nobody made it into the film business. I mean, unless you were related to somebody there was no way in.
George Lucas
Making a film is like putting out a fire with sieve. There are so many elements, and it gets so complicated.
George Lucas
There wasn't much as a kid that inspired me in what I did as an adult, but I was always very interested in what motivates people, and in telling stories and building things.
George Lucas
