More quotes by David Cronenberg
Of course for many years directors have had to go on the road with their movies and promote them and I've done that since the beginning. So that's not new but the forms of it are different such as with the internet.
David Cronenberg
Long live the new flesh.
David Cronenberg
But when you're writing a script - for me anyway - you have to sort of create an enforced innocence. You have to divest yourself of worrying about a lot of stuff like what movies are hot, what movies are not hot, what the budget of this movie might be.
David Cronenberg
Since I see technology as being an extension of the human body, it's inevitable that it should come home to roost.
David Cronenberg
Everybody's a mad scientist, and life is their lab.
David Cronenberg
I have a real aversion to ghosts because I don't believe in them. I think ghosts are actually a religious concept, because it means you believe in an afterlife. And I don't.
David Cronenberg
My dentist said to me the other day: I've enough problems in my life, so why should I see your films?
David Cronenberg
I'm just observing the world. I was born into it, like you were, and then I found out there were some really disturbing aspects to being alive, like the fact that you weren't going to be alive forever - that bothered me.
David Cronenberg
Your'e seeing me develop, not only as a filmmaker if you've seen my earlier films, but you're seeing me kind of learn how to be a human, how my philosophy has evolved.
David Cronenberg
Even Hitchcock liked to think of himself as a puppeteer who was manipulating the strings of his audience and making them jump. He liked to think he had that kind of control.
David Cronenberg
You have to believe in God before you can say there are things that man was not meant to know. I don't think there's anything man wasn't meant to know. There are just some stupid things that people shouldn't do.
David Cronenberg
My understanding of life is very existential. I think that we are our bodies. There's nothing else, and when we die, that's it. No afterlife.
David Cronenberg
I don't have a moral plan, I'm a Canadian.
David Cronenberg
Technology is us. There is no separation. It's a pure expression of human creative will. It doesn't exist anywhere else in the universe. I'm rather sure of that.
David Cronenberg
It's impossible to make a movie out of 'Naked Lunch.' A literal translation just wouldn't work. It would cost $400 million to make and would be banned in every country of the world.
David Cronenberg
Well I don't think sex and violence have ever stopped a movie from being mainstream.
David Cronenberg
When I am creating art, I have absolutely no social responsibility. It's like dreaming.
David Cronenberg
As a filmmaker, I ask questions but don't have answers. Moviemaking is a philosophical exploration. I invite the audience to come on the journey and discover what they think and feel.
David Cronenberg
I can't imagine a life without humor. Especially if you have an existential understanding of life, you must acknowledge the absurdity of it all.
David Cronenberg
The desire to be loved is really death when it comes to art.
David Cronenberg
