More quotes by Steven Spielberg
If I weren't a director, I would want to be a film composer.
Steven Spielberg
Science fiction really is the only genre that lets you use your imagination without limitations.
Steven Spielberg
Whether in success or in failure, I'm proud of every single movie I've ever directed.
Steven Spielberg
I think that a movie can only be an adjunct or only a supplement to books, to different points of view, to scholars, historians and your own teachers.
Steven Spielberg
I think we need to take responsibility for the things we put on this planet, and also take responsibility for the things we take off the planet. We need to have limiters on how far we allow ourselves to go - ethical, moral limiters.
Steven Spielberg
I once said that CGI makes you less inventive. At the time I was bemoaning the loss of the practical stunt. If a stunt can be done practically and safely, I'd rather do it old-style.
Steven Spielberg
I love editing. It's one of my favorite parts about filmmaking.
Steven Spielberg
All good ideas start out as bad ideas, that's why it takes so long.

Steven Spielberg
I did 50 takes on Robert Shaw assembling the Greener Gun on 'Jaws.' The shark wasn't working, so I just kept shooting to make the production report look like we were accomplishing something and to keep cast and crew from going crazy from boredom. It was a strategic indulgence.
Steven Spielberg
When war comes, two things happen - profits go way, way up and all perishables go way, way down. There becomes a market for them.
Steven Spielberg
I simply adore 'The Simpsons.' I go to bed in a 'Simpsons' T-shirt.
Steven Spielberg
This whole thing about reality television to me is really indicative of America saying we're not satisfied just watching television, we want to star in our own TV shows. We want you to discover us and put us in your own TV show, and we want television to be about us, finally.
Steven Spielberg
I have to stay interested. I can't do the same thing over and over again, which is why I don't do - I've made sequels, but it's the movies that are not sequels that I enjoy the most.
Steven Spielberg
'E.T.' began with me trying to write a story about my parents' divorce.
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
When I was very young, I remember my mother telling me about a friend of hers in Germany, a pianist who played a symphony that wasn't permitted, and the Germans came up on stage and broke every finger on her hands. I grew up with stories of Nazis breaking the fingers of Jews.
