Oliver Stone Quotes About Today

Quotes about: Today

• In trying to make a broader historical point about the range of atrocities the Germans committed against many people, I made a clumsy association about the Holocaust, for which I am sorry and I regret. Jews obviously do not control media or any other industry.

  Sorry, Regret, Hard Work
