My diagnosis, he said for better or worse, is that your son is the result of an old pharaoh's curse.
Tim Burton
I always felt that Hollywood has a way of making you feel outside.
Tim Burton
It's hard to find logic in things sometimes. That's why I can't analyze things too much, because it often doesn't make much sense.
Tim Burton
3D is great, but I just think of it as another tool, like colour or music or sound. It has the potential to add another emotional layer to certain things if you use it right. But it's not the saviour [of the movies], the be all and end all, the reason to do something.
Tim Burton
Unwisely, Santa offered a teddy bear to James, unaware he had been mauled by a grizzly earlier this year.
Tim Burton
It's very nice to have someone that you can have a completely abstract conversation with and leave the room, feel like everything's fine, and then realize that if you pick it apart, you have absolutely no idea what either of you said.
Tim Burton
Most people say about graveyards: Oh, it's just a bunch of dead people. It's creepy. But for me, there's an energy to it that it not creepy, or dark. It has a positive sense to it.

And in that one grey hair I saw my whole life and I said I think I need a hair.
Tim Burton
A journalist in America told us that we'd [with Johhny Depp] been working together for 10 decades, so we're a lot older than we look! We actually knew each other before the invention of cinema, so we have quite a good, long relationship.
Tim Burton
That's what I always loved about [Federico] Fellini's films: You see the weird joy of the weird filmmaking family and the abstract craziness that goes along with it, and there's something about it that's quite beautiful.
Tim Burton
Things that I grew up with stay with me. You start a certain way, and then you spend your whole life trying to find a certain simplicity that you had. It's less about staying in childhood than keeping a certain spirit of seeing things in a different way.
Tim Burton
Some people get therapy, some people get to make movies.
Tim Burton
One person's craziness is another person's reality.
Tim Burton
I wasn't a big comic book reader. I always had trouble knowing which box to read next. I was always reading from the wrong box. I was like, this is a comic book that doesn't make any sense! I think I was reading them all out of sequence.
Tim Burton
I always said that I'm not into mass-marketing things. If there's one thing that looks cool, that's fine by me. I'm not interested in a whole bunch of stuff.
Tim Burton
Mayor: How horrible our Christmas will be! Jack Skellington: *No.* [the Mayor switches to his upset face] Jack Skellington: How *jolly*! Mayor: Oh. How *jolly* our Christmas will be.
Tim Burton
Adults forget that kids are their own best censors.
Tim Burton
The Boy with Nails in His Eyes put up his aluminum tree. It looked pretty strange because he couldn't really see.
Tim Burton
I don't look at my films or my old drawings much, so that was an interesting way to kind of reconnect with myself a bit.
Tim Burton
People always think I get really good reviews, but I don't. That's why I don't go on the Internet much - because you can go down a dark hole looking at stuff. Once, I clicked on my name and freaked out. It's too bizarre, it's too weird, it's too unsettling.
