I've always sort of time-locked and mind-blocked myself in my 30s, and that's always the age I feel.

I think the key divide between the interactive media and the narrative media is the difficulty in opening up an empathic pathway between the gamer and the character, as differentiated from the audience and the characters in a movie or a television show.

I just think that the qualities of leadership are unknown even to the leader until he's tested and given a challenge.

I feel like Ive been engaged to the British Empire since 1980 and tonight you have given me the ring knighthood.

Every time I go to a movie, it's magic, no matter what the movie's about.

The most amazing thing for me is that every single person who sees a movie, not necessarily one of my movies, brings a whole set of unique experiences. Now, through careful manipulation and good storytelling, you can get everybody to clap at the same time, to hopefully laugh at the same time, and to be afraid at the same time.

My problem is that my imagination won't turn off. I wake up so excited I can't eat breakfast. I've never run out of energy. It's not like OPEC oil; I don't worry about a premium going on my energy. It's just always been there. I got it from my mom.
