“I sometimes tell a director that I want to work with him. I tell him t...” — Javed Jaffrey Quote

I sometimes tell a director that I want to work with him. I tell him twice. After that if he still doesn't give me a call, I move on.

I do not want to insult anyone with my act and am very careful about it.

It's always good to live in future tense.

Some good talent was just hanging around and waiting for someone to spot them and TV gave them the spotlight. Actors got this platform, which is so great, and could accommodate anyone.

I know that you cannot banish the truth permanently, you can only cloud it temporarily.

I'm always looking to move on to the next thing.

I thought I was going to be a Bruin my whole career, so it was really tough to leave. But you just have to pick up and move on, and I've done that.

Who I am really doesn't matter at all. If I'm the worst person in the world, you can hate me and move on. What really matters here are the issues. What really matters here is the kind of government we want, the kind of Internet we want, the kind of relationship between people and societies.

One has to have the strength of character to say the time has come to move on... unless you are a king.

I think that's the key to being a director: to be able to get the shot and move on quickly.
