The word ‘I’ should be a non-entity because it promotes ego.

My future is righteousness.

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

The magic doesn't come from within the director's mind, it comes from within the heart of the actors. 

I try to live with honor, even if it costs me millions of dollars and takes a long time. It's very unusual in Hollywood. Few people are trustworthy - a handshake means nothing to them. They feel they're required to keep an agreement with you only if you're successful or they need you.

War is mainly a catalogue of blunders. 

Sometimes, I feel like one who is on the sidelines, who has missed life itself.

My religion is based on truth and non-violence. Truth is my God. Non-violence is the meaning of realising Him.

If co-operation is a duty, I hold that non-co-operation also under certain conditions is equally a duty.

If you shut the door to all errors, truth will be shut out.

'No comment' is a splendid expression. I am using it again and again.

The foot feels the foot when it feels the ground.
