More quotes by Steven Spielberg
I turned down 'Harry Potter' and 'Spider-Man,' two movies that I knew would be phenomenally successful, because I had already made movies like that before and they offered no challenge to me. I don't need my ego to be reminded.
Steven Spielberg
Whether in success or in failure, I'm proud of every single movie I've ever directed.
Steven Spielberg
Casting sometimes is fate and destiny more than skill and talent, from a director's point of view.
Steven Spielberg
My problem is that my imagination won't turn off. I wake up so excited I can't eat breakfast. I've never run out of energy. It's not like OPEC oil I don't worry about a premium going on my energy. It's just always been there. I got it from my mom.
Steven Spielberg
All presidents swear an oath to the Constitution to keep this country united, and when the country fell apart, Lincoln had to put it back together again, with a lot of help. But he bore total responsibility.

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.
Steven Spielberg
I don't drink coffee. I've never had a cup of coffee in my entire life. That's something you probably don't know about me. I've hated the taste since I was a kid.
Steven Spielberg
There is a fine line between censorship and good taste and moral responsibility.
Steven Spielberg
I just had a crazy, wild imagination all my life, and science fiction is the greatest outlet for me.
Steven Spielberg
I still have pretty much the same fears I had as a kid. I'm not sure I'd want to give them up a lot of these insecurities fuel the movies I make.
Steven Spielberg
I get that same queasy, nervous, thrilling feeling every time I go to work. That's never worn off since I was 12 years-old with my dad's 8-millimeter movie camera.
Steven Spielberg
I am a very impatient director.
Steven Spielberg
There is something about killing people at close range that is excruciating. It's bound to try a man's soul.
Steven Spielberg
People have forgotten how to tell a story.
Steven Spielberg
I'm 62 years old. Am I old enough to win a lifetime achievement award? Yes, I am. Thank you very much.
Steven Spielberg
You look at war as something that is putting your best friend in jeopardy. You are responsible for the person in front of you and the person behind you, and the person to the left of you and the person to the right of you.
Steven Spielberg
When I grow up, I still want to be a director.
Steven Spielberg
