More quotes by Spike Lee
I think if people looked at my body of work, they'd see a great breadth of work.
Spike Lee
Making films has got to be one of the hardest endeavors known to humankind.
Spike Lee
I think people who have faults are a lot more interesting than people who are perfect.
Spike Lee
I used the principles of Kickstarter to make 'She's Gotta Have It.' We filmed that in 1985 to 1986. The final cost was $175,000. I didn't have that money. It was friends, grants, donations. We saved our bottles for the nickel deposit.
Spike Lee
It has been my observation that parents kill more dreams than anybody.
Spike Lee
I am a hybrid. I do independent films and also do Hollywood films - I love them both.
Spike Lee
It gets dangerous when you start allowing people to validate your work.
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
If you have a talented family, you should be shot if you don't use them.
Spike Lee
First of all, what in this world does not revolve around money? But money is a big part of film, unlike a lot of other art forms.
Spike Lee
Right now a lot of people are still choosing to go to Toronto instead of shooting in New York City, something I haven't done and something I hope I'll never have to do.
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 to use the word 'remake', I think reinterpretation is a better word. It's just a matter of respecting the source, and then trying to make your own film, and trying not to be inhibited by being so beholden to every single thing... We respect the source, but we make changes to it.
Spike Lee
I've been blessed with the opportunity to express the views of black people who otherwise don't have access to power and the media. I have to take advantage of that while I'm still bankable.
Spike Lee
I've always tried to - when I've been able to - support young artists, no matter what medium.
Spike Lee
Amongst black people, you have always heard it said that once a black man reaches a certain level, especially if you are an entertainer, you get a white trophy woman. I didn't make that up.
Spike Lee
A woman who is very secure in herself, what she's about, what she wants to do, who probably figures that she's a prize catch-sooner or later he's going to come around.
Spike Lee
I'm very careful about how I portray violence in my films. I do believe that violence, especially violent video games, are not a good thing for young kids.
Spike Lee
I like people to look like they're floating.
Spike Lee
I want to tell stories, I don't really try to get boxed in by a specific genre.
Spike Lee
