Quote

Climate change is critical to me because I'm a parent I feel a sense of responsibility to the future. I'm not going to be around to see its worst effects, which are going to be hitting in the 2030s, '40s, '50s, but my kids will.

I mean, you have to be able - you have to have made the commitment within yourself to do whatever it takes to get the job done and to try to inspire other people to do it, because obviously the first rule is you can't do it by yourself.
James Cameron

Usually, when you go to a movie, your consciousness floats above the film. 3D sucks you in and makes it a visceral experience.
James Cameron
Image
Hope is not a strategy. Luck is not a factor. Fear is not an option.
James Cameron
Image
I don't just want to be associated with a few good 3D movies and the audience is saying all of the other ones are crap.

Image
I try to live with honor, even if it costs me millions of dollars and takes a long time. It's very unusual in Hollywood. Few people are trustworthy - a handshake means nothing to them. They feel they're required to keep an agreement with you only if you're successful or they need you.

Here's my philosophy in life: If there's a fire, you put it out. If there's a flood, you fill sandbags and you build a dike. You roll up your sleeves and you get to work.
James Cameron

It's really the sense of isolation, more than anything, realizing how tiny you are down in this big vast black unknown and unexplored place.

I don’t feel that I’m making movies for iPhones. If someone wants to watch it on an iPhone, I’m not going to stop them, especially if they’re paying for it, but I don’t recommend it. I think it’s dumb, when you have characters that are so small in the frame that they’re not visible. I’m trying to make an epic.

I don't look at scripts. I just write them.

Image
I certainly didn't think of myself as gifted. The standards for being gifted in my environment were if you were good in Little League or if you were good in football.

Sometimes your whole life boils down to one insane move.
James Cameron
Image
Targets and timetables do matter. But there is a dispirited feeling that the U.S. just rejects multilateral target-setting for the time being.
James Cameron
Image
Imagination is a force that can actually manifest a reality.Don't put limitations on yourself.Others will do that for you.
James Cameron

If you set your goals ridiculously high and it's a failure, you will fail above everyone else's success.
James Cameron
Image
There are many talented people who haven't fulfilled their dreams because they over thought it, or they were too cautious, and were unwilling to make the leap of faith.

If you wait until the right time to have a child you'll die childless, and I think film making is very much the same thing. You just have to take the plunge and just start shooting something even if it's bad.
James Cameron

We have nightmares because our brain is running simulations to put us in jeopardy to see what we'll do or to acclimatize us to that idea that something bad could happen. It's just how human beings are wired because the entire time we were evolving we had to jump quick or the leopard would get us or whatever it was. It's Darwinian.
