I think our life is a series of adventures.
Oliver Stone
We have enormous challenges in front of us.

Oliver Stone
I do have a side as a citizen, and I've always expressed it, and that's where I've gotten into misunderstandings, because some people see me as a leftist nut or whatever. A conspiracy nut. All that stuff. These are definitions that don't really apply to a dramatist, because a dramatist is working from empathy.
Oliver Stone
When you look at a movie, you look at a director's thought process.
Oliver Stone
I make my films like you're going to die if you miss the next minute. You better not go get popcorn.
