Edward Zwick's quotes

  • I have nothing against diamonds, or rubies or emeralds or sapphires. I do object when their acquisition is complicit in the debasement of children or the destruction of a country.
  • Samurai culture did exist really, for hundreds of years and the notion of people trying to create some sort of a moral code, the idea that there existed certain behaviors that could be celebrated and that could be operative in a life.
  • I think one of the privileges of being a filmmaker is the opportunity to remain a kind of perpetual student.
  • I think it's too easy often to find a villain out of the headlines and to then repeat that villainy again and again and again. You know, traditionally, America has always looked to scapegoat someone as the boogie man.
  • I don't think movies can ever be too intense, but people have to understand why you're showing them the things you are showing them.
  • There is a segment of the American population that has been excluded from the national myth, and that should be redressed.
  • To relate to something simply on the basis of race is to deny the universality drama, and I won't be a party to it.
  • I think all popular culture is de facto political, so you goddam well better be responsible about it.
