Spike Lee quotes
" A lot of times you get credit for stuff in your movies you didn't intend to be there. "

Spike Lee
" A lot of times, we censor ourselves before the censor even gets there. "

Spike Lee
" All directors are storytellers, so the motivation was to tell the story I wanted to tell. That's what I love. "

Spike Lee
" Any film I do is not going to change the way black women have been portrayed, or black people have been portrayed, in cinema since the days of D.W. Griffith. "

Spike Lee
" Any time you talk about the look of the film, it's not just the director and the director of photography. You have to include the costume designer and the production designer. "

Spike Lee
" Ask any dark-skinned sister with short hair: She's having a hard time because she's not getting the type of play the light-skinned sister with long hair is getting. "

Spike Lee
" Does it negate that horror to say, Well, at least Hitler's not alive now? "

Spike Lee
" Don't think that because you haven't heard from me for a while that I went to sleep. I am still here, like a spirit roaming the night. Thirsty, hungry, seldom stopping to rest. "

Spike Lee
" Everything I do is always scrutinised. But that's all I'll say about that. "

Spike Lee
" Great crews here. All the technicians, all the artists that work in this industry. I've just been very happy with the body that we've been able to do, especially those films we shot here in New York City. "

Spike Lee
" I always give the example, if you turn on the radio today, black radio, Lenny Kravitz is not black. Bob Marley wasn't black: in the beginning, only white college stations played Bob Marley. "

Spike Lee
" I don't dictate, you don't dictate to Stevie Wonder, not successfully. "

Spike Lee
" I don't really analyze my stuff when I write. I write about stuff that I'm interested in, that I'm feeling at that particular time. When I stand back and look at the complete work, I might see themes that run through the whole film, but I'm not really conscious of it when I'm doing it. "

Spike Lee
" I don't really think color comes into this film. "

Spike Lee
" I get offered to do stuff where the money's nice but it's not something I want to do-I get offered a lot of commercials too. "
