The greater good is achieved by not only telling people what they need to know, but also filling them with a sense of empathy and love.

When you strengthen women, you strengthen the world.

Having traveled to parts of the world where war has done its usual nasty work on people's lives, I have come to develop a particular hatred for the shape, the look, the sound of the AK-47.

My advice to female directors is not to wait until you feel like your ideas have been pre-certified or until you think you've gotten some approval for them. Then it's too late! Follow your gut. That's hard to do, but the only way to be original.

When you make your first film at 47 and anybody but your mother goes to see it, to me, that's a miracle.

Combat is a piece of war. But war is a totalizing, uncivilized experience.

I think if we understand better the impact of war on women and children, we might be more careful about the wars we start.

News reports don't look at the land that existed before a war and the land that exists after a war. Reporting on war is a snapshot in time.

I love everybody. I think my totem animal is a Labrador Retriever.
