More quotes by Steven Spielberg
I have always admired him (Bergman), and I wish I could be an equally good filmmaker as he is, but it will never happen. His love for the cinema almost gives me a guilty conscience
Steven Spielberg
I've always been interested in UFOs.
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 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 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
All those horrible, traumatic years I spent as a kid became what I draw from creatively today.
Steven Spielberg
If Bush, as I believe, has reliable information on the fact that Saddam Hussein is making weapons of mass destruction, I cannot not support the policies of his government.
Steven Spielberg
There were so many odd, strange things about Abraham Lincoln that I think nobody knew how to pigeonhole him.
Steven Spielberg
I get very, very anxious on the set. I have a thousand ideas and I don't censor myself. I wind up cutting some of them out in the editing room... I shoot [needless footage] and then don't use later on in the process.
Steven Spielberg
I think documentaries are the greatest way to educate an entire generation that doesn't often look back to learn anything about the history that provided a safe haven for so many of us today.
Steven Spielberg
When I don't have a movie, I don't take a job just for the sake of working. I just sit it out until I find something I'm passionate about.
Steven Spielberg
I usually do about five cuts as a director. I haven't ever directed a film where I haven't made five passes through the movie, and that takes a long time.
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
Casting sometimes is fate and destiny more than skill and talent, from a director's point of view.
Steven Spielberg
I basically took something that was extremely erotic and very intentional, and I reduced it to a simple kiss. I got a lot of criticism for that.
Steven Spielberg
I'll probably never win an Oscar, but I'll sure have a lot of fun! I really believe that movies are the great escape.
Steven Spielberg
All good ideas start out as bad ideas, that's why it takes so long.
Steven Spielberg
I've always been interested in how we survive and how resourceful we are as Americans.
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've always been very hopeful which I guess isn't strange coming from me. I don't want to call myself an optimist. I want to say that I've always been full of hope. I've never lost that. I have a lot of hope for this country and for the entire world. . .
