More quotes by Spike Lee
It has been my observation that parents kill more dreams than anybody.
Spike Lee
I don't think my films are going to get rid of racism or prejudice. I think the best thing my films can do is provoke discussion.
Spike Lee
A lot of times, we censor ourselves before the censor even gets there.
Spike Lee
I think people who have faults are a lot more interesting than people who are perfect.
Spike Lee
There's a lot of Americans, black and white, who think that we've arrived where we need to be and nothing else needs to be done and affirmative action needs to be dismantled.
Spike Lee
Do the Right Thing' was my first union film. I looked at the rosters, and for the most part, it was white males. Especially the Teamsters. So we had some conversations.
Spike Lee

Spike Lee
Stick around long enough, you'll get some grace.
Spike Lee

Spike Lee
I like people to look like they're floating.
Spike Lee
And one thing Hollywood does well is sequels.
Spike Lee
Fight the power that be. Fight the power.
Spike Lee
I tend to favour films that have multiple plot and story lines, multiple characters and ensemble pieces.
Spike Lee
Music is, for me, a great tool of a filmmaker, the same way cinematography, the acting, editing, post-production, the costumes are. You know, to help you tell a story.
Spike Lee
Any film I do is not going to change the way black women have been portrayed, or black people have been portrayed, in cinema since the days of D.W. Griffith.
Spike Lee
For me, I believe in God, God is real.
Spike Lee
American slavery was not a Sergio Leone Spaghetti Western. It was a holocaust. My ancestors are slaves. Stolen from Africa. I will honor them.
Spike Lee
I think my work shows that I love women. I understand where these types of criticisms are coming from because black people have been so dogged out in the media, they're just extra sensitive.
Spike Lee
I don't like acting not in front of the camera.
Spike Lee
I miss my brother. Prince was a funny cat. Great sence of humor.
Spike Lee
