Movies are my religion and God is my patron. I'm lucky enough to be in the position where I don't make movies to pay for my pool. When I make a movie, I want it to be everything to me; like I would die for it. - Quentin Tarantino

Some quotes are from here.

I suggest watching his interview with Charlie Rose in 1994, after Tarantino released Pulp Fiction.
