More quotes by Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock
These are bagpipes. I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made sound never equalled the purity of the sound achieved by the pig.
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
Always make the audience suffer as much as possible.
Alfred Hitchcock
Drama is life with the dull bits left out. There is no terror in the bang, only in the anticipation of it. I believe in putting the horror in the minds of the audience, and not necessarily on the screen. The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder.
Alfred Hitchcock
To make a great film you need three things - the script, the script and the script.
Alfred Hitchcock
I'm sure anyone who likes a good crime, provided it is not the victim.
Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock
All love scenes started on the set are continued in the dressing room.
Alfred Hitchcock
I can't read fiction without visualizing every scene. The result is it becomes a series of pictures rather than a book.
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
In reference to the murder scene in 'Dial M for murder' As you have seen on the screen the best way to do it is with a scissor.
Alfred Hitchcock
Our original title, you know, was `The Man in Lincoln`s Nose`. Couldn`t use it, though. They also wouldn`t let us shoot people on Mount Rushmore. Can`t deface a national monument. And it`s a pity, too, because I had a wonde.
Alfred Hitchcock
The more successful the villain, the more successful the picture.
Alfred Hitchcock
In films murders are always very clean. I show how difficult it is and what a messy thing it is to kill a man.
Alfred Hitchcock
