When you listen, you learn, You absorb like a sponge - and your life becomes so much better than when you are just trying to be listened to all the time.
Steven SpielbergI'm 62 years old. Am I old enough to win a lifetime achievement award? Yes, I am. Thank you very much.
Steven SpielbergI've always sort of time-locked and mind-blocked myself in my 30s, and that's always the age I feel.
Steven SpielbergI get very, very anxious on the set. I have a thousand ideas and I don't censor myself. I wind up cutting some of them out in the editing room... I shoot [needless footage] and then don't use later on in the process.
Steven SpielbergI made 'Saving Private Ryan' for my father. He's the one who filled my head with war stories when I was growing up.
Steven SpielbergI've got a lot of examples about moments where I thought something would work on film and it didn't work, but I never came to that decision with the film half shot, where I was stuck on a runaway train and couldn't jump off. On those occasions where I have admitted defeat, that this is not going to work, I haven't embarked on that project and made that movie.
