More quotes by Abel Ferrara

Abel Ferrara

Abel Ferrara
Most filmmaking is about shaking hands and just starting.
Abel Ferrara

Abel Ferrara
I don't care if I get $50 million to do a film.
Abel Ferrara
I'm in a house where if the washing machine shuts off, it sings a song. If iPad gets a message, it sings a song. I'm living in a real postmodern time - every single thing sings to you to tell you it's started, it's stopped, you've got a message, you didn't get a message.
Abel Ferrara
Making money is not gonna change anything about what I am, except I won't answer the door.
Abel Ferrara
Even if you're a poet sitting in your room writing a poem, you're still in the world - although I guess being a poet is a different than having to deal with 40 or 50 people to raise a couple million bucks and all that bullshit.
Abel Ferrara
There's a difference between the world ending tomorrow and just drinking and drugging yourself to death.
Abel Ferrara
I grew up in the '60s, which was a creative time, so it wasn't that big of a stretch to go from a baseball bat to a guitar to a film camera.
Abel Ferrara
The actors that I love to work with, they're hard on me. They're pushing me.
Abel Ferrara
