Although I write screenplays, I don't think I'm a very good writer.

In my films, all the great things are put together. It's not like one kind of ice cream but rather a very big Sundae.

I haven't met anybody who hasn't been able to describe years and years and years of very, very difficult struggle through the whole process of achieving anything whatsoever. And there's no way to sort of get around that.

You may make something you don't think is very important during your lifetime and it'll last for a thousand years.

Success is when you try to achieve your inward vision externally and have it come off the way you see it. Then YOU feel successful about it; that's how success is measured.

Film is not an easy occupation. There's a lot of occupations that are difficult and film is one of them.

If you look at 'Blade Runner,' it's been cut sixteen ways from Sunday, and there are all kinds of different versions of it.
