There are two types of producing deals, and I've had both. I've produced over 20 movies now. You are either watching in horror, as the cars take the curve in the grand prix, or you're enjoying it.

More quotes by Guillermo del Toro
For me, lost causes are the only ones that are worth fighting for. The other stuff is not worth fighting for.
Guillermo del Toro
When I stage a violent scene, I try for it to serve a purpose. I do love those things, the makeup effects. But I love them more with the monsters. I never was much of a gore guy. I've always enjoyed just creating monsters.
Guillermo del Toro
Films are fantastic - they are one of the peaks of human narrative. But I'm sorry to break the news to the movie industry: So is a video game.
Guillermo del Toro
Well, the first thing is that I love monsters, I identify with monsters.
Guillermo del Toro
When the monster has a dimension that allows you to humanize it, that's the route I usually want to go.
Guillermo del Toro
My life is a suitcase. I am the traveling Mexican.
Guillermo del Toro
There are times when you are in despair, because in order not to betray who you are, you don't compromise, you don't make movies that would be very lucrative or prestigious or easily understood. And yet I stay attached to the most uncanny premises. It's never been easy.
Guillermo del Toro
When you have the intuition that there is something which is there, but out of the reach of your physical world, art and religion are the only means to get to it.
Guillermo del Toro
You think if you work hard enough, you can fix the precious things you've broken - rather than being careful with them in the first place.
Guillermo del Toro
Hellboy is the first movie where both ends of the spectrum are combined
Guillermo del Toro
: There are only two on-buttons for fear, in any permutation you want. One is when something that shouldn't be is, meaning a presence. And, the other one is an absence.
Guillermo del Toro
Without context, things are not scary. Without context, like humor, horror doesn't work.
Guillermo del Toro
I think when you get all the money and all the freedom, rarely do you get a good movie out of it or a movie that you're proud of.
Guillermo del Toro
It’s as hard to explain as a sexual proclivity. Some guys like high-heeled shoes. I like horror.
Guillermo del Toro
Night is real. Night is not an absence of light, but in fact, it is daytime that is a brief respite from the looming darkness.
Guillermo del Toro
Never fly commercial. That's the moral of this story.
Guillermo del Toro
Survival often feels like an indignity.
Guillermo del Toro
With every movie I produce, I learn something. I watch the directors. It's like the relationship you have with your children. I'm there to learn from my daughters. They are the perfect spirits.
Guillermo del Toro
You only find yourself when you disobey. Disobedience is the beginning of responsibility, I think.
Guillermo del Toro
I like actors that are good with pantomime and that can transmit a lot by their presence and attitude more than through their dialogue
