A real explosion is not only much more fun to shoot, it also helps the actors and creates an energy on set and ultimately in the scene.
Steven Soderbergh
I guess I just look at talent as a very subjective thing. I mean, if you never tried playing an oboe, how do you know you're not the most talented oboe player ever? The point is that if you don't love it, then it doesn't matter.
Steven Soderbergh
I had more fun making Traffic than either of the Ocean's films.
Steven Soderbergh
Everybody, including me, has to submit to what it needs to be. The thing is at the top of the pyramid, the best version of the thing we all have to serve that. You forget that at your own risk. And I think movies are too long, in general.
Steven Soderbergh
I want to thank anyone who spends part of their day creating...anybody who spends part of their day sharing their experience with us-I think this world would be unlivable without art and I thank you.
Steven Soderbergh

Steven Soderbergh
Surprisingly, I don't throw away that much. I don't move forward with a lot of things unless they're going somewhere. You also have to remember that when you're working with other artists, you have to be really careful about how you deal with that stuff.
Steven Soderbergh
Your take on things is what is either going to make you somebody people talk about or no.
Steven Soderbergh
Well, it's 15 years since Sex, Lies And Videotape, and if you hang around long enough you're having the same arguments with just a new set of people every few years and it gets boring.
Steven Soderbergh
Lying is like alcoholism. You are always recovering.
Steven Soderbergh
I'm not precious about anything. The effort it took to get something means nothing to me in post.And it means nothing to the audience. I'll chop limbs off. I'll put an arm where a leg should be. I'll do anything.
Steven Soderbergh
The ought to be a worldwide cultural taskforce that just stops you when you have ideas like combining The Red Desert with an armored car heist movie.
Steven Soderbergh
Sometimes I might feel like [a movie] is kind of a weird idea and if I'm going to get enough money to execute it properly I've got to get somebody in it that is going to justify the expense.
Steven Soderbergh
Truth and facts have to trump partisanship. There has to be something that's true regardless of what your angle is on it.
Steven Soderbergh
I suppose I could try to be some avant-garde artist if I wanted to, but that doesn't interest me as much.
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
When I look around the world and think why is everything working or not working, it's because it's entrenched ideology. You can't solve a problem if you're sitting down with people who say, All these ideas are off the table because of what I believe.
Steven Soderbergh
To me the director’s job is to leave it in better shape than you found it, literally.
