I don't really look for challenges as much as I like adventures. Other than that I'm just trying to find stories I want to tell.

More quotes by Wes Anderson
Sometimes when you're editing a movie, you have the thing that you don't expect - which is you make it longer and longer as you go along.
Wes Anderson
Working with kids is usually very fun. They get so into movie and they're up for anything. Usually they're having such an exciting experience, everybody feels that.
Wes Anderson
I have always wanted to work in the theater. I've always felt the glamour of being backstage and that excitement, but I've never actually done it - not since I was in 5th grade, really. But I've had many plays in my films. I feel like maybe theater is a part of my movie work.
Wes Anderson
the one thing I've observed over the years is the best way to get an actor to not want to play a certain role is to offer it to them. That makes them say, Well, maybe it's not that good. These guys don't want me to do this...
Wes Anderson
It's not usually that great of an idea to read lots of reviews of your movies, because even if somebody's saying nice things, there'll still be something in there that pushes the wrong button, and it's not really that helpful.
Wes Anderson
The movies I make tend not to be quite reality but the characters are inspired by real people and they're always very personal.
Wes Anderson
A lot of people have said my movies are all the same. But I don't actually make an effort to have a style. I'm usually just thinking of what can we do to make it funnier or more interesting or just kind of refine it and it ends up like that.
Wes Anderson
India is a place where one of the great pleasures for a foreigner is that you're constantly surprised. Everywhere you look is something that is either funny, or very moving, but there is always so much that is so unexpected.
Wes Anderson
I usually set aside a lot of time in advance of a movie with important roles for kids to search, but when you have great ones, they can be a real ace in the hole.
Wes Anderson
I've never had a movie that got great reviews. I've had movies that got different levels of good and bad reviews, but you can more or less count on plenty of bad reviews.
Wes Anderson
A prototype is always more expensive than anything.
Wes Anderson
Do you know how writers often say the characters take over... But that is more or less what it always feels like to me, too. Even though that's just a way of describing how your brain is working, it's still what you tend to feel.
Wes Anderson
I will say that Edward Norton, who plays the scout master, would be a first-rate Eagle Scout. He's got all those techniques. If your plane crashes into the jungle somewhere, he would be the guy you would want to have with you.
Wes Anderson
That's the kind of movie that I like to make, where there is an invented reality and the audience is going to go someplace where hopefully they've never been before. The details, that's what the world is made of.
Wes Anderson
Some of the ideas are kind of inspired by the songs, and I always want to use music to tell the story and give the movie a certain kind of mood. That's always essential to me.
Wes Anderson
I don't really wanna think about themes. I wanna just think about the experience of the movie. I feel like, as soon as I reduce it to a theme, once I write that sentence, it won't be that great. I feel like there's more potential for it to mean something interesting if I'm not forcing it to mean something I've already decided.
Wes Anderson
With each movie I have a different set of inspirations.
Wes Anderson
Any romantic feelings for a 12-year-old are like entering into a fantasy world.
Wes Anderson
I didn't think so much of him at first. But now I get it: he's everything that I'm not.
Wes Anderson
The things that are more my own style are something that I don't really have to think about. The only time I have to think about them is if I want to force myself not to do it the way I do it.
Wes Anderson
