More quotes by Oliver Stone
JFK was leading the world, leading the United States into a new position with the Soviet Union. He was calling for the end of the Cold War. He would have been reelected in 1964 because he was vastly popular.
Oliver Stone
I gave up on America. I read the Times just to find out what they're thinking. I read blogs. I get most of my best information from people who are there, people who write independently. And there's actually very few of them.
Oliver Stone
There is nothing inherently wrong with greed as a human motivator - greed motivating evolution. But there's a huge disconnect between the classes. It is very demoralizing to work for someone who makes a billion dollars a year while you make just barely enough to make it.
Oliver Stone
What needs to happen is more of a global understanding, and I believe the United States can work as a global partner and not be the hegemon.
Oliver Stone
I couldn't despise a man more than George W. Bush.
Oliver Stone
I like automatic weapons. I fought for my right to use them in Vietnam.
Oliver Stone
When I go to the movies, and I have to sit through ten previews of films that look [alike] and tell the whole story, you know that we've reached an age of consensus. And consensus is the worst thing for us. We all agree to agree. That's where we lose it as a culture. We have to move away from that.
Oliver Stone
[When making movies I] set out to be authentic to [myself] and to put it down the way [I] feel it and know it and interpret it. And then others sometimes key into it and get it.
Oliver Stone
Each year, the The U.S. Army & its contractors SHOOT, STAB, MUTILATE, & KILL more than TEN THOUSAND live animals in cruel training exercises.
Oliver Stone
I'm interested, I suppose, in tortured power.
Oliver Stone
Hell is the impossibility of reason.
Oliver Stone
My ego is nothing - look what Alexander the Great achieved. And I felt he was a figure outside time, a figure we don't even understand, because he's frankly pre-Christian, and his concepts of honor go back to Homer.
Oliver Stone
Anyone can relate to suffering in this world.
Oliver Stone
This myth that America has this atomic bomb that makes us right, it makes us good, it makes us set the agenda for the world. Everywhere, we can go global, we determine.
Oliver Stone
I'm a history person I love history. But I am conditioned by the present.
Oliver Stone
Horses are very difficult to shoot.
Oliver Stone
I'm not an activist. I'm a filmmaker. I'm a dramatist. My strength is to tell a story, to find a way to tell a story that makes it exciting. Our Untold History was a huge challenge. Snowden was no piece of cake, because writing code and breaking code is some of the most boring stuff you've ever seen.
Oliver Stone
As a dramatist, I don't have politics.
Oliver Stone
Never underestimate the power of jealousy and the power of envy to destroy. Never underestimate that.
Oliver Stone
[Fidel Castro] has a very good [human rights] record.
