More quotes by Steven Soderbergh
There's a difference between failures and things that are bad.
Steven Soderbergh
Some filmmakers, you know, have their style and then they kind of go looking for the movie. I'm not like that. I don't have one style that I want to take from movie to movie.
Steven Soderbergh
Another thing that really excites me: I'd like to do multiple versions of the same film.
Steven Soderbergh
You should never assume anything coming from a critical standpoint. You should go into everything assuming you're going to get crushed.
Steven Soderbergh
I never leave the writer behind, because you rewrite the movie in post, or at least I do. I always do, and I feel like anybody who doesn't at least explore that possibility is short-changing themselves. Editing is the most fun and most exciting part of the process.
Steven Soderbergh
If you're not smart enough to know what Fidel meant during the Cuban revolution, that - when they were on the Granma - Fidel was already a rock star in Cuba, and how important that was to the indigenous population, then you're not paying attention.
Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh
If you're a painter and you want people to know who you are and recognize your work, you've got to build some long-term value.
Steven Soderbergh
I can make a movie about Lee Harvey Oswald and make you feel what he feels and make you understand why he believes what he believes. That doesn't mean I think you should go out and shoot JFK.
Steven Soderbergh
There's a big difference between a movie about relationships and a movie in which people talk about relationships. It seems like a lot of people have confused the two.
Steven Soderbergh
Lying is like alcoholism. You are always recovering.
Steven Soderbergh
I like a lot of different kinds of movies, I like a lot of different kinds of paintings.
Steven Soderbergh
I know why we can't have a frank discussion with our policymakers - if you're in the government or in law enforcement you cannot acknowledge that drugs are anything but inherently evil and morally wrong.
Steven Soderbergh
We [people] are a species that's wired to tell stories. We need stories. It's how we make sense of things. It's how we learn.
Steven Soderbergh
Your take on things is what is either going to make you somebody people talk about or no.
Steven Soderbergh
It's become absolutely horrible the way the people with the money decide they can fart in the kitchen.
Steven Soderbergh
There are three major social issues that this country is struggling with: education, poverty, and drugs. Two of them we talk about, and one of them we don't.
Steven Soderbergh
That's why my attitude, even on my larger-scale movies, is to make them cheap. The less these things cost, the better for everybody.
