More quotes by Alfred Hitchcock
To me Psycho was a big comedy. Had to be.
Alfred Hitchcock
The only way to get rid of my fears is to make films about them.
Alfred Hitchcock

Alfred Hitchcock
Reality is something that none of us can stand, at any time.
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.
Alfred Hitchcock
All love scenes started on the set are continued in the dressing room.
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
A movie should be as long as one can hold their bladder
Alfred Hitchcock
Actually, I have no regard for money. Aside from its purchasing power, it's completely useless as far as I'm concerned.
Alfred Hitchcock
