- When you're working at a studio, where it's nice and comfortable, there's no pain and in my mind no short gain. Bottom line is that the greatest feeling in the world is when you make a movie that you know is good and plays unusually well. That's an emotional home run.
- You need money to make movies. If we become stupid - and we have at many times done dumb things, which I take full responsibility for - we lose money. Yet on balance, we make money.
- Other places give you money to make the movie and you give away your cut. Hell, if I'm gonna live that way, I might as well go work with a studio. This is a self-lubricating machine. We have our own old money.
- The one word that separates an independent production company from all others is risk.
- I have a real problem with having debt. I hate it.
