The director, ultimately, is the guy in front of whom the buck stops. So, he has to have the courage to prevail. But, he has got to have a huge amount of respect for his collaborators. (Prize Quotes)
What I love about the TED is that it’s not, ‘Hey, take this check and enjoy.’ It’s, ‘Do something with this, and we’ll help you.’ I think that’s the most beautiful prize I’ve ever heard of. (Prize Quotes)
