Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock
Puns are the highest form of literature.
Alfred Hitchcock
The picture's over. Now I have to go and put it on film.
Alfred Hitchcock
Everything's perverted in a different way.
Alfred Hitchcock
I am scared easily, here is a list of my adrenaline - production: 1: small children, 2: policemen, 3: high places, 4: that my next movie will not be as good as the last one.
Alfred Hitchcock
Conversation is the enemy of good wine and food.

Ideas come from everything
