After love, the most sacred gift you can give is your labor.

I guess I think that films have to be made totally by fascists -- there's no room for democracy in making film.

...candid still photography had taken over... What was interesting was that the photographs came without any intention of instructing you... You're like a cat looking out the window. You don't have to even know what you're watching, but you're watching it, and you're watching it very accurately.

I would never say no to anything that sounded interesting! The thing I like about making films is that the adventure just begins when you pick up the camera.

I think nowadays people are so used taking the camera to the family picnic - so people are less surprised by films made of them, like home movies.

After love, the most sacred gift you can give is your labor.

We're a family operation. There's not many of us. We have a couple people who come from time to time who work with us. Two of my sons are themselves filmmakers, and we can't afford them nor they us.
