George Lucas
I'd like to see education play a larger role in our daily lives, have people come to a larger understanding - a bigger picture understanding - of how we fit into the world, and how we fit into the universe. Not necessarily thinking of ourselves, but thinking of others.
George Lucas
I'm very proud of all the movies I made. I am very happy with everything I've done. I like to watch my movies. Some of them work. Some of them don't. Some of them people like, most of them they don't.
George Lucas
On the Internet, all those same guys that are complaining I made a change are completely changing the movie. I’m saying: ‘Fine. But my movie, with my name on it, that says I did it, needs to be the way I want it.’
George Lucas
Obviously, people have a lot of different dreams of where America should be, and where it should fit into things. Obviously, very few of them are compatible, and very few of them are very compatible with the laws of nature.
George Lucas
Mos Eisley spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

The ideals and principles for which Martin Luther King Jr. fought have never been forgotten and are as relevant today as they were 40 years ago.
George Lucas
I live a reasonably simple life, off the beaten track.
George Lucas
I like to say that films are never finished, they're only abandoned.
George Lucas
I thought it was too wacky for the general public. On his original opinion of his movie's chances for success, 1997.
George Lucas
I am a giant proponent of giant screens. But I accept the fact that most of my movies are going to be seen on phones.
George Lucas
That's the issue that I've been exploring: How did the Republic turn into the Empire? That's paralleled with: How did Anakin turn into Darth Vader? How does a good person go bad, and how does a democracy become a dictatorship? It isn't that the Empire conquered the Republic, it's that the Empire is the Republic.
George Lucas
Film is not an easy occupation. There's a lot of occupations that are difficult and film is one of them.
George Lucas
Young people don't have a fantasy life anymore, not the way we did. All they've got is Kojak and Dirty Harry. There's all these kids running around wanting to be killer cops.
George Lucas
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.
George Lucas
My life is making movies. I like storytelling, and I've got a lot of stories that are stored up in my head that I hope to get out before my time is up.
George Lucas
There's nothing worse than the frustration of having somebody who you feel doesn't get what you're doing, trying to turn it into something else. It's a very, very annoying and sort of frustrating thing and I just never wanted to go through it. I was very fortunate as I came up through the film business that I was able to insulate myself from that.
George Lucas

George Lucas
Success is a very difficult thing. It's much more difficult than one might think.
George Lucas
