Сyber-warfare is obviously the future. It's a real concern, but we lie so much about what we do that it's hard to know what's going on unless you really follow it.

More quotes by Oliver Stone
After World War II the Republicans - the Wall Street crowd - were very worried about a depression coming back. They hated Franklin Roosevelt in that crowd, my father among them. And there was a great fear in '46 that we'd fall back into the pits. And they always wanted to break up the Roosevelt legislation.

I'm more comfortable with simplicity as I get older.
Oliver Stone
Horses are very difficult to shoot.
Oliver Stone
I love the act of writing. I like the quiet, internal aspect of it. If I lost track of that, I couldn't direct the same way. I couldn't be a director for-hire it's just not my nature.
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
I never put out a history, I put out a dramatic history.
Oliver Stone
I see films in theaters, and I enjoy films. I enjoy the art of storytelling, and the different ways to tell them.
Oliver Stone
I do believe that movies are subject to a million interpretations.
Oliver Stone
I'd rather get past the tyranny of now, where you get judged for something based on what's happening at the moment.
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
I'd like to be honest to my time, and I lived from 1946, and I want to understand why our country, which I love so much, and was a great country when I was young, it seemed, became this monster vampire on the face of humanity- a vampire squid, to quote Matt Taibbi, sucking out the juices of all mankind. Why? It's a basic question.
Oliver Stone
I don't think most people in the US realize how important WikiLeaks is and why Julian's case needs support.
Oliver Stone
As a dramatist, I don't have politics.
Oliver Stone
Venezuela is a democratically elected government. These people who keep protesting are sore losers.
Oliver Stone
A life like Nixon's is filled with shame and filled with glory. He loved to quote Teddy Roosevelt: He was a man sometimes right, sometimes wrong, but he was a man. I love that line.
Oliver Stone
Hell is the impossibility of reason.
Oliver Stone
Everyone in the world is impacted by the United States' Big Brother attitude toward the world. We need countries to say no to the United States. The United States is the dominant power in the universe, with its eavesdropping abilities, cyber abilities. And the world is in danger with our tyranny.
Oliver Stone
Just because we live in a Christian era doesn't mean we're all Christian, necessarily.
Oliver Stone
People should really horde their Blu-rays like old comic books and baseball cards. Because they're really beautiful, and will be worth something if you like movies as I do.
Oliver Stone
It's interesting that when economic times were the hardest, that's when many people embraced liberalism.
