“ I don't profess to be Shonda Rhimes by any stretch of the imagination, or Dick Wolf. They're icons. I'm a filmmaker. Lee Daniels
“ I'm always more comfortable and in a good place when I'm with friends because I know they trust me. I'm able to get great performances from people who trust me. Lee Daniels
“ I'm in a great place because I trust people behind the camera as I go off, and I still go back to my day job and do film. Lee Daniels
“ Here's the thing: I think the media underestimates the intelligence of the moviegoer. We need to be fulfilled. People want to sit down and think, and I try to make people think. Lee Daniels
