The second [presidential] term changes, and I think that John F. Kennedy certainly ran on that and he knew that second term would give him oxygen, and he needed it. Unfortunately, he didn't get there.

I do believe that movies are subject to a million interpretations.

Conspiracy nut, leftist, madman. These are terms of dismissal so you don't have to listen to the argument. It would be healthier and more fun to hear what someone has to say.

You always try to find the right style for the movie. That's the key.

I believe in intermissions. I lived through this experience with JFK and Nixon. JFK should have had an intermission. It should have come right after the Donald Sutherland scene, because then there's just too much information flooding in. You need a break. Same on Nixon. It was a long film, but I couldn't help it, with that kind of subject.

Bernie Sanders is a disappointment on foreign policy, totally doesn't think about it. But he has the possibility to be more isolationist, which would be good for us actually. We manage to kill several million people on this planet without taking any credit for it or blame. It's a heavy karma we have.

I think experience will teach you a combination of liberalism and conservatism. We have to be progressive and at the same time we have to retain values. We have to hold onto the past as we explore the future.

There is a narrative to every life, and I believe in the classic mode of storytelling that goes back to Homer and carries through to today.

I'm a history person I love history. But I am conditioned by the present.

I was lost, and that war [in Vietnam] was very alienating - not that I was against it or for it, but I was just lost after that war. As were many Americans.

I would vote for the man who's lived life, who's done different occupations, who's been out in the real world and struggled to make a living, struggled to raise a family, struggled with life as it exists. So I'd vote for experience, honest experience.

I'm a dramatist. Dramatists have a right to look at history and interpret it the way they see it.
Oliver Stone

We all know what we know. We experience with our minds and breath.

What I've experienced, I'm trying to put in a narrative form, I suppose, to say that it does make sense in this way.

I might as well be myself. Everyone else is taken.

I make my films like you're going to die if you miss the next minute. You better not go get popcorn.
