I think, as you're growing up, your emotions are just as deep as they are when you're an adult. You're ability to feel lonely, longing, confused or angry are just as deep. We don't feel things more as we get older.
Spike Jonze
I just want to make whatever is exciting.
Spike Jonze
If I can make one generalised statement, and generalised statements are never entirely true, nobody wants to be talked down to, kids included.
Spike Jonze
I think at the beginning of a project, you decide if you're in love with the idea and what it's about, or what you think it's about at that time at least. Then you commit to it, and once you've commit to it no matter what, no matter how many self doubts you have, you're in it. The ship's sailed, you can't turn around.
Spike Jonze
Kids are so fiercely opinionated, that if they love the Harry Potter books and they go see the movie, they'll be the first to say, 'That was wrong! They didn't get that right!' They're storytellers themselves. They're critics. They're going to have the critical opinion.
Spike Jonze
I'm not one to intellectualize why I did something.
Spike Jonze
I think the way kids create is so inspiring. They're drawing a picture? They love the picture they drew; they're not tortured about it.
Spike Jonze
I think because I'm not a parent, my most immediate connection to childhood is my memory of my own childhood.
Spike Jonze
As a parent, your perspective of childhood is through the eyes of this person that you care so much about and you just want the world to be great for them. You want their life to be easy and happy.
Spike Jonze
Music is thousands and thousands of years old and I don't think that basic, primitive connection to the language of music ever changes.
Spike Jonze
The invention of the iPod changes how you use music. Suddenly you have music everywhere.
Spike Jonze
Emotions are messy and hard to figure out.
Spike Jonze
I like naps. I don't drink coffee.
Spike Jonze
I don't understand the whole testing-numbers thing. It is not how I want to make movies.
Spike Jonze
I like hiring people based on a feeling - this person gets it - rather than what they've done in the past.
Spike Jonze
Felt is not the easiest thing to animate. It's very flimsy.
Spike Jonze
On everything I do I'm always taking someone's money, whether it's a movie studio or a record label. Somebody's paying for it, and I'm always respectful of that. But I'm never going to compromise.
Spike Jonze
I always aspire to that, where it feels like the film was made by the characters as opposed to the filmmakers. I try to be invisible.
Spike Jonze
What I learned from the Beastie Boys was to be independent. They set up their own world separate from the label. They built their own studio.
Spike Jonze
I'm in awe of directors like the Coen brothers who can shoot their script and edit it, and that's the movie. They're not discovering the movie in postproduction. They're editing the script they shot.
