More quotes by Alfred Hitchcock
The Birds could be the most terrifying motion picture I have ever made.
Alfred Hitchcock
San Francisco would be a good location for a murder mystery.
Alfred Hitchcock
Someone once told me that every minute a murder occurs, so I don't want to waste your time, I know you want to go back to work.
Alfred Hitchcock
That is the most frightening sight I have ever seen.
Alfred Hitchcock
When we think we have been hurt by someone in the past, we build up defenses to protect ourselves from being hurt in the future. So the fearful past causes a fearful future and the past and future become one.
Alfred Hitchcock
A woman of mystery is one who also has a certain maturity and whose actions speak louder than words. Any woman can be one, if she keeps those two points in mind. She should grow up-and shut up.
Alfred Hitchcock
A lot of movies are about life, mine are like a slice of cake.
Alfred Hitchcock
Making a film means, first of all, to tell a story. That story can be an improbable one, but it should never be banal. It must be dramatic and human. What is drama, after all, but life with the dull bits cut out?
Alfred Hitchcock
Revenge is sweet and not fattening.
Alfred Hitchcock
I always take the audience into account.
Alfred Hitchcock
A woman, I always say, should be like a good suspense movie: The more left to the imagination, the more excitement there is. This should be her aim - to create suspense, to let a man discover things about her without her having to tell him.
Alfred Hitchcock
Kicking is very important in football. In fact, some of the more enthusiastic players even kick the ball, occasionally.
Alfred Hitchcock
I enjoy playing the audience like a piano.
Alfred Hitchcock
Self-plagiarism is style.
Alfred Hitchcock
In the documentary the basic material has been created by God, whereas in the fiction film the director is a God he must create life.
Alfred Hitchcock
I'm a writer and, therefore, automatically a suspicious character.
Alfred Hitchcock
One must never set up a murder. They must happen unexpectedly, as in life.
Alfred Hitchcock
Claude Jade is a brave nice young lady. But I don't give any guarantee what she will do on a taxi's back seat.
Alfred Hitchcock
This weapon [an ax] is primitive but effective. And it's also guaranteed to be fifty-percent painless. You see, it takes two people to operate, and the person at this end [the handle] doesn't feel a thing.
Alfred Hitchcock
Dialogue should simply be a sound among other sounds, just something that comes out of the mouths of people whose eyes tell the story in visual terms.
