- I think the Merchant Ivory brand really means literate dialogue. I think it starts with that. When people say something, you know it has some sort of ripples to it.
- [on producer Harvey Weinstein] He is a bully who feels that if he screams and yells and punishes you enough, he is going to get his way. (...) He's both a genius and an asshole and unfortunately those things seem to go together.
