Norman Jewison Thinking Quotations

I think all Nazis didn't see themselves as bad people. I've never met a racist yet who thought he was a racist. Or an anti-Semite who thought they were anti-Semitic.

I think you get better as you get older.

Every generation deals with the breaking down of its tradition, and I think that they rediscovered the film.

I don't like to think that maybe I'm just getting old. I'm not too excited about watching a huge explosion. I'm more interested in people and characters.

I think I've done pretty well. I've had about 46, or 47 nominations from my movies, and my films have won about 12 awards, so I don't have any complaints.

I try to find stories that I would think that everyone would find interesting, and just a good entertaining story, and then if I can find a story that has a raison d'etre behind it that I feel is important then that's the best for me.

The album for Fiddler really took off. I think it was a combination of John Williams and the score. It was a very classy big album.

But I've never met a racist yet who thinks he's a racist. That's always the disturbing thing about when we begin to look at ourselves.
