• Niños, la práctica diaria de yoga o saludos al sol (surya-namaskara) es muy buena para la salud y para la práctica espiritual. La falta de ejercicio adecuado es la causa de muchas de las enfermedades actuales. Si podemos llegar a tiempo a algún sitio a pie, caminemos siempre en lugar de coger un vehículo. Es un buen ejercicio. Sólo si tenemos que ir lejos debemos depender de los vehículos. Utilizar la bicicleta, siempre que sea posible. Así también ahorraremos dinero.

• Simplemente no hay manera de que yo pueda entender en la tierra verde de Dios que una compañía aérea pueda llevar a cabo con sus procedimientos normales la operación del Transbordador Espacial. . . . No se ponen paracaídas en los aviones de pasajeros porque el margen de seguridad está incorporado en la máquina. Los aviones 727 que volamos son vehículos probados con niveles de seguridad y redundancia incorporados. El transbordador es un aparato experimental hecho a mano.

• Ya no se puede creer nada de lo que se ve en un periódico. La verdad misma se vuelve sospechosa al ser puesta en ese vehículo contaminado... Tal vez un editor podría comenzar una reforma de alguna manera como ésta. Dividir su periódico en cuatro capítulos, titulando el 1º, Verdades. 2º, Probabilidades. 3º, Posibilidades. 4º, Mentiras. El primer capítulo sería muy corto.

• But you know, I'm very conscious that people criticize Hollywood. Yet we've created a form, the Western, that can be understood in every country. The good guys against the bad guys. No nuances. And the horse is the best vehicle of action in our medium. You take action, a scene, and scenery, and cut them together, and you never miss.

• I speak as an unregenerate reader, one who still believes that language and not technology is the true evolutionary miracle. I have not yet given up on the idea that the experience of literature offers a kind of wisdom that cannot be discovered elsewhere; that there is profundity in the verbal encounter itself, never mind what further profundities that author has to offer; and that for a host of reasons the bound book is the ideal vehicle for the written word.

• So each of the commercials- basically it's an action movie cliché. "Bus" is very much inspired by Speed obviously, where you have a high-jacked out of control bus, and you have heroes who are trying to jump from a moving vehicle to the bus and they just can't do it because the moving vehicle can't get close enough, because all these VW cars have this distancing technology, which is really fantastic.

• These commercials, I directed them all from inside the tracking vehicle, so I was traveling about 85mph most of the time, so there wasn't really anyone sitting beside me other than the driver. But, you know, yeah the agency is there and VW is there, which is- they're paying for it all and also because the agency created the boards, they want to make sure that you're not going off the rails in executing it. And also they can help, because they- it's a very different thing to cinema.

• Creo en el espíritu humano. Y normalmente la gente que me sigue -mis fans y cosas así- son personas afines, en ese sentido. Les gusta oír hablar de gente que sufre, pero que está bien, y de gente que siente que no puede seguir adelante, pero luego encuentra una razón para seguir. ¿Cómo te casas con alguien y lo amas, y luego muere? ¿Cómo es posible? ¿Por qué estamos en este viaje? Quieren hablar de las cosas y quieren entenderlas. Así que este es el vehículo perfecto para ello.

• Nine times out of ten, I'm trying to meet someone else's expectations, whether it's the director or the writer or the animator, when I go back in to re-record a line. I'm the icing on the cake, but the cake is the thing. I'm really just a hood ornament on a very solid vehicle.

• Why do people think the spiritual life demands withdrawal from the ordinary? Because they've been taught, at least by implication, that the physical is a block to the spiritual. When we assume that the spiritual, unlike the physical, is impervious to corrosion, then we assume that all things material are not to be honored. But the fact of the matter is, the material is the vehicle of the spiritual.
