I think movies glamorize violence, in the sense that they make it in a way that it's either cool or funny.

It's a juggernaut, yeah... but I'm not phased by making movies.

I like the idea of making big budget films with a heart. I like graphic novels more than comic books.

People just want to watch movies that are entertaining, it doesn't matter what genre it is.

Crime, money, power, drugs - are all linked.

Being a producer, I deal with a lot of different directors, and some of them would drive me insane with all the different histrionics, and the mystique that they carry.

I'm not a member of a minority but I can empathize with what's going on.

Some people are directors and I think they should stay behind the camera.

I think there's a time in your life where you don't feel like you fit in. I think everyone has that when you're a teenager, especially, and especially in the society we live in.

You can't please everyone... If you make a good movie, that's all that matters.

I think it's easier to make a film with 200 million dollars than 960 grand.

Gratitude is the root of all transformation and abundance.

I have always waited for the perfect tools to carve a statue, little did I realize that tools were never the issue, It's my carving skills which needed an upgrade and improvement.

To be honest, I don't listen to groups, really. Hardly ever. I know I'm in one, but I don't like them very much.

In my old age, I'll be in L.A.

Most blacks will argue that they excel because of hard work, because of intellect, determination, sweat, blood, tears and risk.

Politics can be the graveyard of the poet. And only poetry can be his resurrection.

If you want art, don't mess about with movies. Buy a Picasso.

Now that the 90's are over and more time has gone by, the 80's sound fresh again.

I owe my success to expansion pitching, a short right field fence, and my hollow bats.

The law is the public conscience.
