The thing that I'm just scared to death of is that someday I'm going to wake up and bore somebody with a film.

I've always been interested in UFOs.

You have many years ahead of you to create the dreams that we can't even imagine dreaming. You have done more for the collective unconscious of this planet than you will ever know.

I turned down 'Harry Potter' and 'Spider-Man,' two movies that I knew would be phenomenally successful, because I had already made movies like that before and they offered no challenge to me. I don't need my ego to be reminded.

I don't think any movie or any book or any work of art can solve the stalemate in the Middle East today. But it's certainly worth a try.

I'm always in favor of Israel responding strongly when it's threatened.

I don't dream at night, I dream at day, I dream all day; I'm dreaming for living.
