Oliver Stone
When you look at a movie, you look at a director's thought process.
Oliver Stone
Each actor requires a different language.

You don't always have to have an e-book. You can have a real book. I'd like to see the old way maintain.
Oliver Stone
I think any filmmaker will tell you when they wandered from theater to theater to watch their prints, it was disheartening to see the poor levels of light and the disrespect for films that existed in certain theater chains. It was always inconsistent.
Oliver Stone

You're not a historian, but most historians will tell you that they make very discrete judgment as to what facts to omit in order to make their book into some shape, some length that can be managed.
Oliver Stone

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
What Chavez has done [in Venezuela] is that he has brought extreme poverty to an end.
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
You do the best job you can. You take it step by step. It's hard enough to make a movie. If it works, that's great. If it means something beyond the moment to somebody, they can take it and it lasts through the years, we'll see.
Oliver Stone
I can't tell you how many times at the breakfast table my dad would curse out Franklin Roosevelt. I love my father. He was an intelligent man, but he really didn't like regulations of the Roosevelt style, or the taxes. He was an Dwight Eisenhower man. And that's what Eisenhower did, committed to breaking down the program.
Oliver Stone
We all know what we know. We experience with our minds and breath.
Oliver Stone
I'm going to hold onto my Blu-ray collection because I really think it's hardware and it's important. I don't want to live in a cloud, all my life.
Oliver Stone
Venezuela is a democratically elected government. These people who keep protesting are sore losers.
