Quote

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.

I would lose myself too much if I thought of myself as the audience.
Steven Spielberg

I think the secret of great acting is that you have to bring your imagination to the party. You have to have a great imagination and you have to bring it every day when you're working. Your imagination and your skills as an actor are what see you through, not what you're wearing or where you are.

When I was younger, all I cared about was what people thought of me and my films. Now I care less about catering, hand-serving, hand-feeding the audience. I've gotten to the point now in my life where I'm serving myself.

I'd rather direct than produce. Any day. And twice on Sunday.

The older I get, the more I look at movies as a moving miracle.

I don't play online games. 'Warcraft,' I've played that, but I mainly play action games.

In high school, I got smacked and kicked around. Two bloody noses. It was horrible.

My movies more often are told through pictures, not words. But in this case, the pictures took second position to the incredible words of Abraham Lincoln and his presence [...] I was less interested in an outpouring of imagery than in letting the most human moment of this story evolve before us.

The turning point in my career was Jaws. It was a turning point because I was a director-for-hire before Jaws and because it was such a big hit I could do any movie I wanted and Hollywood just wrote me a cheque.

Movies are always in a state of locomotion. You start with a general idea of how it should feel and then you find you've got a runaway train. You have to race to catch up: the movie is telling you what it wants to become, and when that happens there's no greater feeling.

I've always been interested in how we survive and how resourceful we are as Americans.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I always think if it's a good story, the audience can't wait to run out of the theater and go tweet somebody with the gist of a story, in a nutshell, almost, because it was that interesting.

Image
I love editing. It's one of my favorite parts about filmmaking.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I wanted to do another movie that could make us laugh and cry and feel good about the world. I wanted to do something else that could make us smile. This is a time when we need to smile more and Hollywood movies are supposed to do that for people in difficult times.

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.

I'm 62 years old. Am I old enough to win a lifetime achievement award? Yes, I am. Thank you very much.

It's still a mystery to me, but even though my mother was like an older sister to me, I kind of put her up on a pedestal.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I think Lincoln had a unique parenting style. He let his kids run free and wild.
Steven Spielberg
Image
Whatever affect any of my films have on audiences, I just kind of stop at the door. I make them and I just don't go outside after they're over.

There were so many odd, strange things about Abraham Lincoln that I think nobody knew how to pigeonhole him.
