Ridley Scott: Zitate auf Englisch
“Universe to me is, if you’d like, the final character.”
New York Times interview (2013)
Kontext: Universe to me is, if you’d like, the final character. Your landscape in a western is one of the most important characters the film has. The best westerns are about man against his own landscape. I think people have lost the ability to do that.
“Most novelists are desperate to do what I do.”
New York Times interview (2013)
“I'm really intrigued by those eternal questions of creation and belief and faith.”
Esquire interview (2012)
Kontext: I'm really intrigued by those eternal questions of creation and belief and faith. I don't care who you are, it's what we all think about. It's in the back of all our minds.
Esquire interview (2012)
Kontext: I do despair. That's a heavy word, but picking up a newspaper every day, how can you not despair at what's happening in the world, and how we're represented as human beings? The disappointments and corruption are dismaying at every level. And the biggest source of evil is of course religion. … Can you think of a good one? A just and kind and tolerant religion? … Everyone is tearing each other apart in the name of their personal god. And the irony is, by definition, they're probably worshipping the same god.
