I have not given much credence to reviews of my films. Sometimes they're wrong, but it didn't matter to me.

I love my early movies, but naturalism is an artist's early style. Now I want to deal with feelings, dreams, an acceptance of irrationality.

I want films to haunt an audience, to give them something to remember and be able to talk about.

There's nothing more interesting than the landscape of the human face.

After 'The Empire Strikes Back,' I got to make big films that I didn't care about, 'Never Say Never Again' and 'RoboCop 2,' and then I got too old.

Film is a window to the real world but a lie that makes you believe the unbelievable.
