“If a person is confident enough in the way they feel, whether it's an art form or whether it's just in life, it comes off---you don't have anything to prove; you can just be who you are.”
“You're as young as you feel. As young as you want to be. There's an old saying I heard from a friend of mine. People ask him, "Why do you look so good at your age?" He'll say, "Because I never let the old man in." And there's truth to that. It's in your mind, how far you let him come in.”
“I am not a regret type person. I don't believe in regrets. Lots of things you would do differently if you'd do it again, but you don't do it again, so you don't think about it. But that goes for life in general. You're only dealing with the knowledge you have at that time.”
More on Filmmaking
“Yes, I'm always - I'm always surprised when you make a film and you live with it a while and you put it out, you never dream that anybody is ever going to want to really see it.”
“I don't watch a lot of films. I'm usually involved in making them.”
“Everybody thinks making films back to back is a big deal but they did it all the time in the old days.”
More on Collaboration
“The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.”
“Learn from the people. Plan with the people. Begin with what they have. Build on what they know.”
“I invented nothing new. I simply combined the inventions of others into a car. Had I worked fifty or ten or even five years before, I would have failed.”
