“I’m old. I read stuff. I see things. I want to tell stories, the whole world has opened up to me and there’s no more time. it’s too late. It’s too late. Kurosawa, when he got his Oscar, when George Lucas and Steven Spielberg gave it to him, he said, “I’m only now beginning to see the possibility of what cinema could be, and it’s too late.” He was 83. At the time, I said, “What does he mean?” Now I know what he means.”
– Martin Scorsese
