Tell Everyone That Your Mistakes Are Art.

Exploitation Films Were Famous For Taking An Issue An Exploiting It Because They Could Move Much Faster Than A Studio Could. If There Was Any Hot Topic, They Would Run Out And Make A Quick Movie And Make A Buck On It, By Changing It Around And Using It, In Some Way, To Give Some Relevance.

Don't Give Me Any Money, Don't Give Me Any People, But Give Freedom, And I'll Give You A Movie That Looks Gigantic.

It's Easier Making A Smaller Film Like El Mariachi. There Are No Budget Worries Because There Is No Budget. There Is No Crew Problem Because There Is No Crew. And If You Screw Up, No One Is Around To See You Screw Up -- So It's No Longer A Screw Up.

I Try To Remind People, Whether You Have A Growth Manager Or A Value Manager, You're Going To Go Through Cycles Where You Think You Have A Village Idiot.

Creativity, Not Money, Is Used To Solve Problems.
