You Know, I Find It Very Strange

Films Are Always Pretentious. There's Nothing More Pretentious Than A Filmmaker.

A Lot Of Directors Don't Know What They Want To Do. Every Director I've Seen That Was A Good Director That I've Admired Knew Exactly What He Wanted To Do. They Didn't Sit There And Think About It.

I'm The Barbarian Of Hollywood.

I've Always Been Able To Survive By Writing, Though.

Egotism Is Not A Good Quality. It's Not Something To Be Admired Or Even Tolerated. It Wouldn't Be Tolerated In A Field Commander And It Shouldn't Be Tolerated In A Movie Director.
