I had never touched a computer in my life before I came to Pixar.

I'm also a huge cinephile, and I have witnessed that to honor the book literally word-for-word never makes a good movie.

Even as a kid I was never the generator of humor, but I always knew who was funny, who to hang out with.

I've been a fan of movies longer than anything else. One thing I learned a long time ago is that you can't translate a book literally to the screen. It won't work because it's a different medium. And it would be the same in reverse.

There's nothing that you like in this world that wasn't influenced by a bunch of key things; nothing came completely clean out of a vacuum.

Most people know me at Pixar as the guy that doesn't like to do sequels or very reluctant to do sequels.

I've always been shocked and waiting-for-the-other-shoe-to-drop that a girl would ever talk to me, let alone want to marry me. They always seem to hold the power to me, and from my mother to my wife to my daughter, every time I try to really figure them out, and think I've got them pegged, I pay for it.
