It's hard for me to worry about the studios losing money. I'm not very sympathetic to their money problems, because they certainly haven't been sympathetic to mine.

I hate losing laughs they're rare things.

My strength, if it's anything, is that I can lure some big-name actors in. That's probably the strength of almost any director now. On your own, as a director, you've only got so much weight. James Cameron, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Michael Bay... that's about it. Everybody else depends on the star power that they can draw.

There was a perverse side of me, with things like Van Helsing coming out. I didn't want to go down that route.
Terry Gilliam

Actually, I began to think that maybe there is a god, after all. Or maybe its a different one. The old one got fired.

I got my head bashed in at a demonstration against the Vietnam War. Police were losing control because they were up against a world they really didn't understand.

I like being a patron of things, I like patronizing things. And if it's not going to be people, I'll patronize a festival.

My problem is I'm like a junkie. I want a good movie fix, and I never get that fix.

The English are such a frightened, nervous, insecure group of people - they no longer rule the world!

If you really want your films to say something that you hope is unique, then patience and stamina, thick skin and a kind of stupidity, a mule-like stupidity, is what you really need.

I wasn't creative or theatrical. I was just doing everything. I was head cheerleader, valedictorian - it was ridiculous!

I've given up asking questions. l merely float on a tsunami of acceptance of anything life throws at me ... and marvel stupidly.

Hyperbole is something Id better avoid.
