More quotes by Steven Spielberg
From a very young age, my parents taught me the most important lesson of my whole life: They taught me how to listen. They taught me how to listen to everybody before I made up my own mind. When you listen, you learn. You absorb like a sponge - and your life becomes so much better than when you are just trying to be listened to all the time.
Steven Spielberg
I was a scared kid... I think I was born a nervous wreck, and I think movies were one way to find a way transferring my own private horrors to everyone else's lives. It was less of an escape and more of an exorcism.
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 want to be the Cecil B. DeMille of science fiction.
Steven Spielberg
And I may often question choices I make as a producer. But I've never questioned the choices I make as a director.
Steven Spielberg
For one thing, I don't think that anybody in any war thinks of themselves as a hero.
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 never felt comfortable with myself, because I was never part of the majority. I always felt awkward and shy and on the outside of the momentum of my friends' lives.
Steven Spielberg
The making of the movie and the routine of making the movie is a lot like being in a Spanish prison for five years on a marijuana breakdown.
Steven Spielberg
If I weren't a director, I would want to be a film composer.
Steven Spielberg
I dream for a living.
Steven Spielberg
One of my daughters is a competitive jumper, we live with horses, we have stables on our property. But I don't ride. I observe, and I worry.
Steven Spielberg
It [Lincoln movie] had nothing to do with politics. It had nothing to do with holding a mirror up to the way we conduct our business on Capitol Hill. This was meant to be a story, a Lincoln portrait if you will. I think any time is the right time for a very compelling story, any time.
