I cannot explain why they made that sequel to Secret of NIMH. Because they claim that it the original didn't make money, so what was the enthusiasm to make a sequel?

Once you work with a studio on a film, the studio is sort of like this enormous clam that just opens, takes everything and then closes, and no one enters again. They own it all.

The studios will go wherever they smell money. It's like sharks to the blood.

We're waiting for the pendulum to swing back again, which I am absolutely confident it will.

We'd love to do Space Ace 3D. It has a lot of potential. But, it is really up to the publishers.

You've got to be able to make animation for much less... Less is not the studio's way.

If the machines can take the drudgery out of it and just leave us with the joy of drawing, then that's the best of both worlds - and I'll use those computers!

I prefer that animation reach into places where live action doesn't go, and it seems like all of animation nowadays is trying to go where live action is.

The only one that seems to be able to hold the business is Disney. They do it is because they have a fabulous philosophy about marketing- but even they wavered.

You just can't keep pouring money down an endless hole and never recoup any of it. It's got to be a business.

The heart of Dragon's Lair has always been its compelling story. With Dragon's Lair 3D, we think the team has really created an interactive animated movie.

Tell people the hammered truth, and it will ring like steel against an anvil.

WHEN YOU ARE GREATFUL, THE UNIVERSE AND THE WORLD WANT TO GIVE YOU MORE.

Life tries and succeeds in stopping you with its horrible ways during your happy times

Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.

Nature is the most beautiful thing we have. It's better than art because it's from the creator.

Stress is the worst thing. That's the ultimate demise of any good thing.

The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don't have to explain things with words.

When an acquaintance goes by I often step back from my window, not so much to spare him the effort of acknowledging me as to spare myself the embarrassment of seeing that he has not done so.

And if you stop and think about it you won't believe it's true: That all the love you've been giving has all been meant for you.

That's what I love about acting. There's never a set role. You can be a firefighter, you can be a baseball player, you can be whatever you want in the acting world. I think I've found my calling.
