- [re shooting Dr. Strangelove (1964) with Stanley Kubrick] Stanley could handle a camera, so I told him, 'For all this war stuff, we'll both put on battle dresses and take Arriflexes into the action. We'll film it just like combat cameramen.'
- I am most happy to be remembered as the man who set the look for Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977). I wanted 'Star Wars' to have clarity because I don't think space is out of focus.
- [Re Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977) and George Lucas who...] avoided all meetings and contact with me from Day 1, so I read the extra-long script many times and made my own decisions as to how I would shoot the picture.
