[On being nominated for an Oscar for the third time for The Last Detail (1973)] "The first time I was up for an Oscar, I thought I would win it. But I didn`t have as sharp a view as I do now. The second time...I expected to lose, and deservedly lose, to G...

[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 i...

On working with Martin Scorsese in Gangs of New York (2002): "He`s a perfectionist, obsessed with detail. That`s why he went over budget and over schedule."
Leonardo DiCaprio
As a feature film director you got to be a guarding dog of the whole production. You got to be able to hold 100 script pages in the head at the same time. If you miss a detail it`s wasted. I don`t know how the music video generation can affect the movie b...
Spike Jonze
I don`t want perfection of detail in the acting. I`d hate a picture that was perfect, it would seem machine made. I want the human touch, so that you love the picture for its imperfections.
Charlie Chaplin
You must be absolutely honest and true in the depicting of a totem for meaning is attached to every line. You must be most particular about detail and proportion.

Without going into too much detail, the end of my major action scene, after the climax of the scene, there was one little change that I suggested regarding the way things should turn out. It was in the detail of the tears of blood.

With Fever, the film was so made for the screen, and there`s so much surround sound that was done for the film - enormous detail paid to that. I wasn`t thinking video, because I didn`t know how it was going to turn out.

When I see myself in the videogame it`s amazing how realistic I look. This is the most authentic and realistic soccer game I have ever seen. It is like I`m looking in a mirror. The attention to detail is incredible.
Alan Levin
Well, I don`t know if I can comment on Kant or Hegel because I`m no real philosopher in the sense of knowing what these people have said in any detail so let me not comment on that too much.
Andre Dreicon
Well we took it apart scene by scene. We examined every sentence, every full stop, every comma. He has a most wonderful eye for detail, Roman, and you know, he`s a very good artist.
Ronald Harwood
We were just doing an inventory of all the items in the museum. I`d seen this poster before, but really reading it in detail it`s amazing what went on here back then.

We shall look for more detail on the group`s cost-cutting programme and on recent acquisitions. Overall, we expect the outlook statement and current trading to be the main share price drivers.

We have seen a central government taking more and more control over public education, over communications, over transportation, over every detail of our daily lives.
Robert Welch
We had a lot of guts, heart and passion. We were in extreme foul trouble. We went back-and-forth the whole game. We paid attention to detail and did the little things to win.
Arnavaz Mistry
This is an inappropriate effort by these organizations to improperly inject themselves into a lawsuit to which they are not parties, ... We will be responding in detail to this brief in a future filing.
Philip Morris
They want more detail about where the money goes. I see them as more informed investors who want to be wise and cautious about their gifts.
David Kennedy
They have to have sufficient detail in their plan to both satisfy the court and get the funds they need to exit bankruptcy. They need to show that they have a plan that will function properly for the longer term.
Michael Allen
There are a lot of times that if a detail in a scene or a beat, feels unnatural, they`ll allow me to explore another direction to go until we`re all comfortable with what we are doing.
George Eads
The view after 70 is breathtaking. What is lacking is someone, anyone, of the older generation to whom you can turn when you want to satisfy your curiosity about some detail of the landscape of the past. There is no longer any older generation. You have b...
Barry Broome
The theory that can absorb the greatest number of facts, and persist in doing so, generation after generation, through all changes of opinion and detail, is the one that must rule all observation.
Adam Smith
The tendency of modern scientific teaching is to neglect the great books, to lay far too much stress upon relatively unimportant modern work, and to present masses of detail of doubtful truth and questionable weight in such a way as to obscure principles.
