[on Steven Spielberg] Steven Spielberg is the only person I’ve come across who fits my criteria of genius. And I don’t throw that word around. Genius is imagination and attention to detail. The ability to achieve to the minutest detail what you perceive in your imagination. I don’t think there’s another person on earth who’s as great a plot structuralist or better storyteller.
