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.

More quotes by George Lucas
I felt that one of the major issues in the third film is that Luke is finally on his own and has to fight Vader and the Emperor by himself. If you get a sense that Yoda or Ben is there to help him or to somehow influence him, it diminishes the power of the scene.
George Lucas
The older you get, the less seriously you take criticism. I've gotten to a point now where I ignore it completely. It's just not relevant to me anymore.
George Lucas
The sciences are the 'how,' and the humanities are the 'why' - why are we here, why do we believe in the things we believe in. I don't think you can have the 'how' without the 'why.'
George Lucas
I am more of a visual person than a verbal person. For me, I think, the excitement is the fact that I found a way of telling the story as I want to tell it, in a medium that I could master.
George Lucas
Everyone seems to think that digital technology devoids the medium of content, but that is not true at all. If anything, it broadens the content.
George Lucas
The influence of 'Hidden Fortress' comes up a lot because it was printed in a book once. The truth is, the only thing I was inspired by was the fact that it's told from the point of view of two peasants, who get mixed up with a samurai and princess and a lot of very high-level people.
George Lucas
One of the things that will never get explained in the films is how Ben was able to retain his identity, because it happened somewhere between the third and fourth movies. I set up that this is a discipline that he learned from Yoda Yoda told him how to do that.
George Lucas
I wanted to make a kids' film that would strengthen contemporary mythology.
George Lucas
That had always been my purpose: to get people back in touch with what makes us so valuable as a human race.
George Lucas
I would like to see our society mature, and become more rational and more knowledge-based, less emotion-based.
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
When you get a small group of fans who hate something, it becomes compounded by the internet. The press picks up the internet like it's a source. They don't realise it is just one person typing out their opinion.
George Lucas
I never had a story for the sequels, for the last trilogy. That's not really part of the plan at this point, and I'll be at the age where to do another trilogy would take 10 years. I'd always envisioned it as six movies. When you see it in six parts you'll understand that it really ends at part six.
George Lucas
In my experience, there's no such thing as luck.
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
'Young Indiana Jones' was one of the happiest times I ever had, so I love television.
George Lucas
I was never interested in being powerful or famous. But once I got to film school and learned about movies, I just fell in love with it. I didn't care what kind of movies I made.
George Lucas
I'm lucky enough that there is never a blank canvas in front of me... I have hundreds of projects that I want to do but I am running out of time.
George Lucas
I'd be the first person to say I can't write dialogue. My dialogue is very utilitarian and is designed to move things forward. I'm not Shakespeare. It's not designed to be poetic.
George Lucas
I’m moving away from the business, from the company, from all this kind of stuff.
George Lucas
