Steven Spielberg

I don't make unconventional stories; I don't make non-linear stories. I like linear storytelling a lot.

You shouldn't dream your film, you should make it!

When I don't have a story to tell, I'm a terror to live with.

Don't listen to anybody. Nobody knows the magic bullet. If they did, they'd sell it and make a fortune. Follow your gut. Follow your instincts. Every once in a while, take a chance.

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.
