I will never do Pulp [Fiction] 2 but having said that, I could very well do other movies with these characters.

I'll write for a while and then I'll find an appropriate song and in a weird way the music will keep me in the mood. I find music to define the mood of the movie, the rhythm the movie is going to play in.

I've always equated the writing process with editing, sort of like when I get through editing the movie, that's like my last draft of the screenplay.

I don't feel any 'white guilt,' because I had nothing to do with (slavery) whatsoever. I feel shame for my country that it happened and that's why I feel we need to deal with it.

I wasn't a predator. I didn't pick on other people all right, but people didn't beat me up.

Spaghetti Westerns are really brutal and operatic with a surreal quality to the violence.

I don’t want to be an old-man filmmaker, making old-man movies, and I don’t want to be the one not to know when to leave the party.
