The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Edward Burns

  • Look: You’re not gonna become a millionaire doing this, but that was never the point. And I think a lot of people in the indie film business kind of took their eye off of that.
  • I suffer from Irish-Catholic guilt. Guilt is a good reality check. It keeps that ‘do what makes you happy’ thing in check.
  • When I was 25 years old and had no money – and didn’t know how to make movies and had no experience – I was able to get $25,000 together, and that film was ‘The Brothers McMullen.’
  • I’m betting that in two years I’ll be talking to you about a film that I shot on an iPhone. It’s absolutely coming, I have no doubt in my mind.
  • So you got the cool New Yorkers, and then there are the less-than-cool New Yorkers.
  • I’m always aware of who my core audiences are and I serve that niche.
