More quotes by George Lucas
I'm extremely grateful that I discovered my passion. I love movies. I love to watch them, I love to make them.
George Lucas
Film is a very tight little box. If you don't fit in that box, you're gone. Television, there's more room to move around.
George Lucas
Rejoice for those around you who transform into the Force. Mourn them, do not. Miss them, do not. Attachment leads to jealousy. The shadow of greed, that is. Train yourself to let go of everything you fear to lose
George Lucas
When my films don't work it's usually because I tried some very experimental idea. I tried new ideas and they just didn't work, as opposed to trying to do something conventional and having it be so conventional nobody wanted to see it.
George Lucas
I'm aware that dialogue isn't my strength. I use it as a device. I don't particularly like dialogue which is part of the problem.
George Lucas
'American Graffiti' was unpleasant because of the fact that there was no money, no time, and I was compromising myself to death.
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
I'm the one who has to have everybody throw rocks at me all the time, so at least if they're going to throw rocks at me, they're going to throw rocks at me for something I love rather than something I think is not very good, or at least something I think is not finished.
George Lucas
There wasn't anything in my life that was going to stop me from making movies.
George Lucas
Never tell me the odds!
George Lucas
'Young Indiana Jones' was one of the happiest times I ever had, so I love television.
George Lucas
Mos Eisley spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.
George Lucas
I think as you grow up, you realize you have obligations just in your life - being a citizen, being part of humanity - to help other people, to help your country, to help the world.
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
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
But having a really good understanding of history, literature, psychology, sciences - is very, very important to actually being able to make movies.
George Lucas
You can't put a title card at the head of the movie and say, Well, we really had a bad problem. You know, the actor got sick and it rained this day and we had a hurricane.
George Lucas
You have to find something that you love enough to be able to take risks, jump over the hurdles and break through the brick walls that are always going to be placed in front of you. If you don't have that kind of feeling for what it is you're doing, you'll stop at the first giant hurdle.
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
Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter.
George Lucas
