I never felt comfortable with myself, because I was never part of the majority. I always felt awkward and shy and on the outside of the momentum of my friends' lives.

More quotes by Steven Spielberg
Twenty years from now, there will still be a square screen, maybe even larger, and people will be sitting in a large, dark space, and they won't know each other unless they bring friends along.
Steven Spielberg
I made 'Empire of the Sun' in Shanghai in the 1980s and want to come back one day to make a movie in China.
Steven Spielberg
I guess my first digital movie was 'Tintin' because 'Tintin' has no film step. There is no intermediate film step. It's 100% digital animation, but as far as a live-action film, I'm still planning to shoot everything on film.
Steven Spielberg
I interviewed survivors, I went to Poland, saw the cities and spent time with the people and spoke to the Jews who had come back to Poland after the war and talked about why they had come back.
Steven Spielberg
The thing that I'm just scared to death of is that someday I'm going to wake up and bore somebody with a film.
Steven Spielberg
I missed my dad a lot growing up, even though we were together as a family. My dad was really a workaholic. And he was always working.
Steven Spielberg
When my children were born, I made the choice I wanted them to be raised as Jews and to have a Jewish education.
Steven Spielberg
I had no choice. It was just something that happened. I was always looking for ways to act out, and I got a camera and it acted out for me.
Steven Spielberg
I love to go to a regular movie theater, especially when the movie is a big crowd-pleaser. It's much better watching a movie with 500 people making noise than with just a dozen.
Steven Spielberg
I think every movie I've made after 'Indiana Jones,' I've tried to make every single movie as if it was made by a different director, because I'm very conscious of not wanting to impose a consistent style on subject matter that is not necessarily suited to that style. So I try to re-invent my own eye every time I tackle a new subject.
Steven Spielberg
There were so many odd, strange things about Abraham Lincoln that I think nobody knew how to pigeonhole him.
Steven Spielberg
Like, I took no poetic license with 'Schindler's List' because that was historical, factual documents.
Steven Spielberg
It starts with the writer-it's a familiar dictum, but somehow it keeps getting forgotten along the way. No film-maker, irrespective of his electronic bag of tricks, can ever afford to forget his commitment to the written word.
Steven Spielberg
History is so fleeting and we are so busy consuming media and the contemporary culture, voraciously gobbling it up, that we have no room to look back ever, and our young people have a tough time looking back.
Steven Spielberg
[The way Stanley Kubrick] tells a story is antithetical to the way we are accustomed to receiving stories.
Steven Spielberg
Because television doesn't offer the kind of budget that a movie offers, you've got to be a little more careful where you spend the money to put the fiction in science.
Steven Spielberg
My filmmaking really began with technology. It began through technology, not through telling stories, because my 8mm movie camera was the way into whatever I decided to do.
Steven Spielberg
I think the greatest thing about DVD is the quality of sound and picture the real estate to put more extras on and, my favorite point is it stores quietly in very subtle places in your home .
Steven Spielberg
From the day I started to think politically and to develop my own moral values, from my earliest youth, I have been an ardent defender of Israel.
Steven Spielberg
I was fifteen, or sixteen. I was in high school. I was spending a summer in California with my second cousins. And I wanted to be a director really bad. I was making a lot of 8mm home movies, since I was twelve, making little dramas and comedies with the neighborhood kids.
