Alexander Payne Work Quotations

They say you can do honest, sincere work for decades, but you're given in general a 10-year period when what you do touches the zeitgeist - when you're relevant. And I'm aware of that, and I don't want my time to go by.

I'm so not interested in producing, other than doing my own work, producing my own films. I only do it as favors, for other people to get their films made.
