Johnnie To's quotes

• ...we wanted a good quality movie created quickly. We needed a movie good enough to be called a Milkyway Image film.
• 2003 is going to be an important year for me and Milkyway Image, because we have decided to change our direction. This year audience will see new styles of films coming from us, and one of them may be a personal film akin to PTU.
• As a producer, I always encourage directors to pursue their own styles, and I try not to alter or take over their works. I have been a director for many years and I have a lot of respect for those of my profession.
• I'm proud of all the movies I have done since I owe them my current position.
• My ultimate goal has always been to achieve top-notch quality Hong Kong movies. At the time of directing my very first movies, I already wanted to achieve this same goal, but I was unable to get what I really wanted.
• I already wanted to bring together a film crew to work together on different and interesting movie projects; but collaborating with different people with different ideas and different ways to work on every new movie made it all very difficult.
