The process of making a film is more important than the final product.

Remember that reputation and integrity are your most valuable assets and can be lost in a heartbeat.

I'm not afraid to take risks.

And I hope you will come back here to Harvard 30 years from now and reflect on what you have done with your talent and your energy. I hope you will judge yourselves not on your professional accomplishments alone, but also on how well you have addressed the world's deepest inequities…on how well you treated people a world away who have nothing in common with you but their humanity.

I'm the reason your space won't expand.
