Kirk Cameron Quotes

Disney was not a good animator, he didn't draw well at all, but he was always a great idea man, and a good writer.

I love jotting down ideas for my blog, so I doodle or take notes on all kinds of stuff that inspires me: the people I meet, boutiques I visit, a florist that just gave me a great idea for an interior-design project, things like that.

A dream of mine is to become an executive producer and writer. I would love if that ended up happening to me in the future.

I think the script is the key. Regardless of how great everybody else is working on a film, if you're working on a script that you don't think is great, you're not gonna be able to make a great film. Whereas if the script is great, then you can.

I love TV, don't get me wrong. But with film, you're just banging out this one product and you're not waiting on another script. You have your script. It's great, in that way.

It's very difficult to find good scripts in Hollywood any more.

I'm a filmmaker; I want to make films. I don't want to sit in a hotel room waiting to make films, and I can control my thing in Denmark; I can make the film I want to make... of course, I have to write a good script, all that, but if I do my job, it will happen.

I think that whenever there's a good script we try to make that happen, but it's all based off of a good story, a good script, but I don't believe you should do it just because it's African-American.

I'm still auditioning and doing other movie parts, but I really like the developing and the writing. You have more control over your destiny.

The hardest part of this whole movie-making endeavor is finding ideas.

It's great fun if you get a good piece of writing and you can pretend to be someone else, tell a story that needs to be told, make some kind of connection. I've always fancied myself as a leading man, but I really doubt whether anyone else sees me that way.

I'd love to see a good script of one of my books, in these years of animations and comic book sequels, and had so many written over the years, but none quite clicked.

I think it's always good for the author to stay a good cattle prod's distance from the actual moviemaking.

I just went and got an agent because I thought I can create my own world - you can't right your own life, but you can escape to a world where you can have control.

But, yeah, I'm really happy when I'm writing. When I'm being creative and when I have something that I can put down. You know, if you go out and you overhear a conversation or you have a thought, you have a receptacle to go home and say, 'Oh, this would be great in this script.' Your antenna's out in a different way, and I love that time.

You can have a million dollar, 20 million dollar budget or 60 million dollar budget, and if you don't have a good script, it doesn't mean a thing.

I like writing my own material - I'm pretty good at it.

There's one great script that hit my desk that I didn't change at all, and that was True Romance.

If I've got a script, you think I'll go to Hollywood to get money? I was bored with the people around me, so I just created my own movie, my own character. I'm the story of my own movie, and you know what? My movie is going to be better.

It seems so cliched and obvious, but write the movie you want to see in the theater.

At some point, I would like to start creating my own things. If people don't write the scripts I like, then I will do my own.

NI love watching science fiction because I feel like when it's done well, it's not just monsters, but philosophy. Really good science fiction like, '2001,' for example, or the first 'Matrix.' But it takes someone who's got a brain and thinks in order to do really good science fiction.

I sort of love reading the scripts and going, 'Oh wow, what a great idea. I never would have thought of that.'

I'm just trying to tell a good story and make thought-provoking, entertaining films. I just try and draw upon the great culture we have as a people, from music, novels, the streets.
