Steven Spielberg
You know, I don't really do that much looking inside me when I'm working on a project. Whatever I am becomes what that film is. But I change you change.
Steven Spielberg
All those horrible, traumatic years I spent as a kid became what I draw from creatively today.
Steven Spielberg
One of the gratuities about being a director is that you can volunteer yourself out of difficult details.
