People say, You paid your dues, but I never paid any dues. It's always been a great trip.

I'm open to comments. I'm open to objective points of view, because I've been very narrow and very subjective.

How was I going to make a man fly? How was I going to convince the public that an actor could fly?

I was painting sets, working in editorial as an assistant, driving their trucks... lying that I knew how to drive a truck... and doing commercials and documentaries.

I was tweaked by the idea of Superman immediately.

I realized what you could do in motion pictures by surrounding yourself with geniuses.

In motion pictures, the actor rules. The camera served the actor.
