A lot of the films I've made probably could have worked just as well 50 years ago, and that's just because I have a lot of old-fashion values.

All of us every single year, we're a different person. I don't think we're the same person all our lives.

Every time I go to a movie, it's magic, no matter what the movie's about.

I am an American Jew and aware of the sensitivities involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Steven Spielberg

I don't think any movie or any book or any work of art can solve the stalemate in the Middle East today. But it's certainly worth a try.

I dream for a living.

I interviewed survivors, I went to Poland, saw the cities and spent time with the people and spoke to the Jews who had come back to Poland after the war and talked about why they had come back.

I like the smell of film. I just like knowing there's film going through the camera.
Steven Spielberg

I never felt comfortable with myself, because I was never part of the majority. I always felt awkward and shy and on the outside of the momentum of my friends' lives.

I want to be the Cecil B. DeMille of science fiction.

I wanted to do another movie that could make us laugh and cry and feel good about the world. I wanted to do something else that could make us smile. This is a time when we need to smile more and Hollywood movies are supposed to do that for people in difficult times.

I'm always in favor of Israel responding strongly when it's threatened. At the same time, a response to a response doesn't really solve anything. It just creates a perpetual-motion machine.
Steven Spielberg

I'm not really interested in making money.
Steven Spielberg

I've discovered I've got this preoccupation with ordinary people pursued by large forces.

If Bush, as I believe, has reliable information on the fact that Saddam Hussein is making weapons of mass destruction, I cannot not support the policies of his government.
Steven Spielberg

Naturally, it is a terrible, despicable crime when, as in Munich, people are taken hostage, people are killed. But probing the motives of those responsible and showing that they are also individuals with families and have their own story does not excuse what they did.
Steven Spielberg

People have forgotten how to tell a story. Stories don't have a middle or an end any more. They usually have a beginning that never stops beginning.
Steven Spielberg

The public has an appetite for anything about imagination - anything that is as far away from reality as is creatively possible.
Steven Spielberg

There is a fine line between censorship and good taste and moral responsibility.
