A Quote by Samuel Goldwyn, Jr.

Good movies are what I wait my whole life for. — © Samuel Goldwyn, Jr.
Good movies are what I wait my whole life for.
If I had done some of the movies that I was offered as an actor - and very good movies, by the way, and some of them big moneymakers - I don't know that I ever would have taken what was the concentration or the time to do the movies that I produced. 'Reds' is a good example, but 'Shampoo' is also an example, and so was 'Heaven Can Wait.'
Now I know that if you wait until you think you are ready, you'll wait your whole life
There is no good reason. Don't waste your life waiting for good reasons...You'll wait and wait.
I think the whole stigma of 'black movies' is slowly being lost. When you look at movies like '12 Years A Slave,' to 'The Butler,' to 'The Best Man,' to 'Ride Along,' to even 'Think Like a Man' from last year - these movies are just good movies.
I've been escaping my whole life. Since I was a little child, I escaped into the movies on the other side as an audience member. I escaped by going into the movies and sitting in the movies all day long.
Richard Donner made great movies. Seminal movies. The Academy, though, and we have to be careful here, should recognize popular films. Popular films are what make it all work. There was a time when popular movies were commercial movies, and they were good movies, and they had to be good movies. There was no segregation between good independent films and popular movies.
If you wait for the right time or the good times to start a business, you wait all your life.
I think that there's good movies and there's bad movies, and sometimes the bad movies spoil it for the rest of us, and we focus on them, but in the long run, all that matters are the good movies. Those are the ones that we will remember.
I want more sci-fi movies that aren't $200 million movies that I have to wait for and generally be disappointed with.
Don't wait for miracles, your whole life is a miracle.
The longer you wait, the less fun. If you wait until the bitter end, the whole economy can be destroyed.
I've always said that I've been acting my whole life, and everyone always told me, 'you should be an actress professionally.' I've heard that my whole life, so it's kind of cool to think, 'yeah, they were right.' I can do this and I'm good at it, and that feels really good.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. Don't try to write through it, to force it. Many do, but that won't work. Just wait, it will come.
Many people wait throughout their whole lives for the chance to be good in their own fashion.
The whole business is changing dramatically, and the way fans follow and participate in movies, and make their own movies to emulate those movies, is profoundly different.
My whole life, I've been told to 'wait my turn' and 'know my place.'
