Quote

Film noir has a mood that everyone can feel. It’s people in trouble, at night, with a little bit of wind and the right kind of music. It’s a beautiful thing.

The artist doesn't have to suffer to show suffering. Have it on the screen but have the people come out of the theater into a world of peace, of a beautiful world. They don't have to suffer in their lives.

I supported myself by delivering the 'Wall Street Journal' and doing odd jobs. I love plumbing and carpentry.

Image
Sometimes I get an idea for cinema. And when you get an idea that you fall in love with, this is a glorious day.
David Lynch
Image
I like making films because I like to go into another world. I like to get lost into another world.

Every single thing in the world that was made by anyone started with an idea. So to catch one that is powerful enough to fall in love with, it is one of the most beautiful experiences. It's like being jolted with electricity and knowledge at the same time.

I quit smoking in December. I’m really depressed about it. I love smoking, I love fire, I miss lighting cigarettes. I like the whole thing about it, to me it turns into the artist’s life, and now people like Bloomberg have made animals out of smokers, and they think that if they stop smoking everyone will live forever.

Because you make a world that didn't exist before, and you can go into that world deeper and deeper. It's unbounded out there. One film takes you into one area, another film takes you into another area. There could be trillions, zillions of worlds that exist in the big space.
David Lynch
Image
Don't make a film if it can't be the film you want to make. It's a joke, and a sick joke, and it'll kill you.

Image
Everybody's got creativity. Dive within to the ocean of infinite creativity.
David Lynch
Image
I would rather not make a film than make one where I don't have final cut.
David Lynch
Image
You get all the puzzle parts together enough to say the puzzle is complete. It's a script. In the process of realizing that, new ideas can come, one way or another. Through a happy accident, they just come to you.
David Lynch
Image
In the world there's a thing called collective consciousness. All of us billions of human beings together create that collective consciousness. With all the problems in our world, you can see that the collective consciousness is not so high.

I find the joy of the 'doing' increases. Creativity increases. Intuition increases. The pleasure of life grows. And negativity recedes.

Two half hitches around the horn will hold the devil as sure as you're born.

We're all like detectives. We want to figure things out. Life, you know, we want to figure out life, and we want to figure out what's going on, so it's beautiful. It's beautiful that people are thinking.

Film can't just be a long line of bliss. There's something we all like about the human struggle.

Negativity is the enemy of creativity.

I like to remember things my own way. How I remembered them, not necessarily the way they happened.
