Alfred Hitchcock
A glimpse into the world proves that horror is nothing other than reality.
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
A lot of movies are about life, mine are like a slice of cake.
