I'm one of the few directors that actually shoots a lot in camera.

I allow a lot of room for improvisation and funny stuff. I always feel planned.

I make movies for teenage boys. Oh, dear, what a crime.

Everybody knows about Pearl Harbor. The thing that really fascinated me is that through this tragedy there was this amazing American heroism.

Some nights I sleep like a baby. Other nights it's, Oh God, I just came up with a bomb shot.

Fast cars are my only vice.

Why isn't everything exploding?!

Maybe I have just a younger voice than many other directors.

I go out there to win. People don't care if you die in this business. The only way I get back is with success.

Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in 'Transformers.' I like to think that I've had some luck in building actors' careers with my films.

I look at directing as a sporting event. It's a race, a marathon. It's great when it clicks, which is why I push my crews so hard so we can excel.

If you're living completely on your own, break out of solitary confinement. Seek to understand others, and help them understand you.

Free yourself from the need to blame others. There are two reasons that you are where you are right now

The world's a scene of changes.

Artistic vision comes from a mind clear enough to fall in love with what we see.

Everyone can reach his goal, if he can think, wait and fast.

Many think that assigning blame settles matters.

Stand fully in the now moment with gratitude, enthusiasm, openness, and readiness to respond to Life as it greets you.

I'm not going to sit on the porch of the old anchorman's home with a drool cup.

A country inn is a percolator. News seeps, simmers, and bubbles.
