Ron Howard's quotes

It was always my dream to be a director. A lot of it had to do with controlling my own destiny, because as a young actor you feel at everyone's disposal. But I wanted to become a leader in the business.
[asked what his future holds in 1979]: If I had to choose between a great acting job and a good directing job, I'd choose the directing job.
I've acted with all types, I've directed all types. What you want to understand as a director, is what actors have to offer. They'll get at it however they get at it. If you can understand that, you can get your work done.
I'm not a caterer. I just have to stay with my creative convictions. At some point, you have to just get past the special-interest groups and do what you're there to do, which is make a movie.
[on the death of Bea Arthur]: What she did in television and the characters that she created broke new ground, and she was a great artist.
[on the current state of cinema, 2014]: I really think the creative process is more exciting than ever. There are more and more people doing great work.
[on the death of James Garner]: Garner was a hell of a driver. He truly was a "man's man".
