In the past I've made movies that were pretty universally liked. You can't really hate them. You can discard them, but you can't really hate them.

I don't want to be doing movies that I don't want to do. They take so much out of you.

You ought to love what you're doing because, especially in a movie, over time you really will start to hate it.

I'd rather not make films than make bad ones.

I so desperately hate to end these movies that the first thing I do when I'm done is write another one. Then I don't feel sad about having to leave and everybody going away. That's why I tend to work with the same people; I really befriend them.

The reason I keep making movies is I hate the last thing I did. I'm trying to rectify my wrongs.

Every time you do something, people are going to like it, people are going to hate it. You tend to make the movies on the basis you are making them for the people who are going to like them and not worrying too much about people who don't like them.

I never wanted to make movies just for me. I want to make movies that people watch.
