More quotes by Steven Soderbergh
It's a world in which people's motives are questionable and shadowy.
Steven Soderbergh
It takes one asshole to ruin the whole thing. That's it. One. The problem with the world is one asshole comes up with a really bad idea and now we're all taking our shoes off at the airport.
Steven Soderbergh
I'm not precious about anything. The effort it took to get something means nothing to me in post. 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
There is sadness of when you're watching someone enjoy something that you think is substandard. The ineffable sadness when someone is happy and something is not as good as it should be.
Steven Soderbergh
A real litmus test for me is how people treat someone who is waiting on them. That's a dealbreaker for me.If I were on the verge of getting into a serious relationship and I saw that person be mean to a waiter... I'm out.

Steven Soderbergh
I always have a plan, but then I'm always ready to throw the plan out, and everyone's ready to make a radical left turn if necessary.
Steven Soderbergh
You’re supposed to expand your mind to fit the art, you’re not supposed to chop the art down to fit your mind.
Steven Soderbergh
Maybe I'll paint, do photography, just something else. I can see that.
Steven Soderbergh
Once I had a potentially heart attack-inducing eight double espressos in one day. I think my assistant secretly swaps my coffees for decaf as she doesn't want me to die of caffeine overdose.
Steven Soderbergh
You can't change who you are, so I think that the only thing you can do is just never talk to people about stuff and then hope that maybe does something.
Steven Soderbergh
I stopped reading reviews about my own movies. I read stuff about other people's movies.
Steven Soderbergh
My working life is me doing what I want to do. This is that. I've made movies that people don't go to see.
Steven Soderbergh
I'm obviously really opinionated, but as a producer, you don't necessarily want the person you're working with to try to impress you - you want them to just be themselves.
Steven Soderbergh
I grew up mostly in the South, and there's definitely something about the South that's different from the North. When people ask me where I'm from, I say Louisiana. I spent more years there than anywhere else.
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
I actually didn't find out about a lot of music until I was older. Some people have been listening to the Beatles their whole lives I didn't discover them until I was 18 years old.
Steven Soderbergh
You can't get good at anything unless you do it day in and day out, over and over.
