This thing that Colin Powell's son is expected to do is kind of scary when you think that television and radio and newspapers are what make people think what they think.

I am playing with the assumptions that we have in our everyday life when we are tripped up or fooled and we learn something, that makes things exciting - I am having fun with that stuff, but you have to manage it so it doesn't get too cute, that's what I trying to work toward.

But what I did think would be interesting is if we created a fictitious story of our own, and then took these stories that we had collected and assigned them to characters who would be played by actors.

I think there are some very evil things about gentrification.

One day I had an idea for a movie. Everything came after that.

I still haven't figured out how to have fun on a shoot.

Initially, it was about kids at the bottom rung of the social ladder, due to their looks and their class background. But they're also outsiders in terms of their peer group.

I was the first voice of Baltimore television in 1947.

If you're a kid who's not necessarily attractive, and you don't have money, and you're not hip and cool, chances are you're not going to feel good about yourself and want to be an actor.

How you define yourself is a major issue for young people and adults alike.

Kids - in a really good way - can talk about their differences without the baggage that adults have.

Dick Enberg is still around and still being as good as he ever was.

Of course the Munich tragedy was the biggest event in my career and the most terrible.

This thing that Colin Powell's son is expected to do is kind of scary when you think that television and radio and newspapers are what make people think what they think.

I studied secondary education.

Working on the film really made me confront my opinions about change and gentrification.

Well, this is the second time I've done New Directors.

Kids who have no money are still figuring out a way - somehow - to dress nicely.

There are a lot of people who like to think they don't have prejudices and that they're open people, and yet, we all have that in ourselves, oftentimes against people of our own race or our own gender or whatever.

On one hand, as a filmmaker, I don't want to make a movie with guns everywhere.

Right now the thing that I have learned the most is to be grateful that I have finally gotten to a point where I am being paid to make films, after eight years.

I think Bob Costas is terrific. He's so knowledgeable. He can talk about any subject, not just sports.

So, when you see a kid with ratty jeans on, wearing sneakers that aren't clean, you know they're in a certain place economically. I was interested in that experience.

When you make work, your goal might not be first and foremost to have as many people as possible see it, but it might be more about honing your craft as a storyteller or making art, but, there's no doubt about it, you want lots of people to see it.

Here were these college kids beating the Soviets and going on to the Olympic Gold Medal. To me, that's the greatest upset of all time in any sport that I can think of.

I like the way Wiseman builds a story in an unconventional way.

Toward the end of school I started watching movies. Got a job in a movie theater in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Critics are sentinels in the grand army of letters, stationed at the corners of newspapers and reviews, to challenge every new author.

Nowadays I'm not even sure if newspapers take into account whether a person is a good writer.

In the little hall leading to it was a rack holding various Socialist or radical newspapers, tracts, and pamphlets in very small print and on very bad paper. The subjects treated were technical Marxist theories.

It's strange that the newspapers don't see a connection between their false revelations about my private life and my need for seclusion and security.

I couldn't have attended half the parties that I was supposed to have been to according to the newspapers. It bothers me.

What kind of morons do you have working at newspapers in Austin that would base an entire review of an artist's performance on whether or not they had a good seat?

In these times we fight for ideas and newspapers are our fortress.

Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.

The nicest thing is to open the newspapers and not to find yourself in them.

Radio, newspapers, they were normal parts of my life. In those days, you had to go somewhere to watch television and leave something to see it.

It was 1966 by the time I started taking pictures seriously and books, newspapers and magazines of the time were full of great pictures that helped to inspire me.

Rage is the only quality which has kept me, or anybody I have ever studied, writing columns for newspapers.

My name was on the list very early after these announcements were made through the newspapers in Europe.

The votes of 60,000 Floridians were not counted. The Court threw out all 60,00 votes. And that's what the newspapers around the country are counting now.

Don't believe everything that you read in the newspapers.

My reputation was a bit exaggerated. Things were written in newspapers, then copied, then doubled. One of the reasons why I never disclaimed that, was because I found it amusing. But I also constructed such an image for myself in order to gain more of a private life.

And in the Second World War, you didn't just read about it in the newspapers because you weren't allowed to read it in the newspapers. It was all censored, you know? So nobody knew what we were doing.

I tried to keep it secret, but the story got into the newspapers. It was more difficult for my family, who couldn't understand why the media wouldn't leave me in peace.

Frankly, despite my horror of the press, I'd love to rise from the grave every ten years or so and go buy a few newspapers.
