More quotes by David Lynch
When the going gets tough, everyone leaves.
David Lynch
The world is as you are.
David Lynch
There is an ocean of pure vibrant consciousness inside each one of us.
David Lynch
I would rather not make a film than make one where I don't have final cut.
David Lynch
I love seeing people come out of darkness.
David Lynch
Sleep is really important. You need to rest the physiology to be able to work weel and meditate well. When I don't get enough sleep, my meditations are duller. You may even dip into sleep at the beginning of your meditation, because you're settling down. But if you're well rested, you'll have a clearer deeper experience.
David Lynch
I've always loved the electric guitar: to hold it and work it and hear what it does is unreal.
David Lynch
Ideas are like fish. If you want to catch little fish, you can stay in the shallow water. But if you want to catch the big fish, you’ve got to go deeper. Down deep, the fish are more powerful and more pure.They’re huge and abstract. And they’re very beautiful.
David Lynch
I love the quality, feel and history of film. I love the pictures of the giant cameras and the way it was.
David Lynch
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.
David Lynch
Two half hitches around the horn will hold the devil as sure as you're born.
David Lynch
Someday, hopefully very soon, 'diving within' as a preparation for learning and as a tool for developing the creative potential of the mind will be a standard part of every school’s curriculum.
David Lynch
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
As a kid, I was always building things. My father had a shop in the house, and we built things - we were kind of a project family. I started out as a painter, and then painting led to cinema, and in cinema, you get to build so many things, or help build them.
David Lynch
Absurdity is what I like most in life, and there's humor in struggling in ignorance. If you saw a man repeatedly running into a wall until he was a bloody pulp, after a while it would make you laugh because it becomes absurd.
David Lynch
To make the script, you need ideas, and for me a lot of times, a final script is made up of many fragments of ideas that came at different times.
David Lynch
Float with me in the world of ether.
David Lynch
I think part of the reason ideas haven't come in is that the world of cinema is changing so drastically, and in a weird way, feature films I think have become cheap. Everything is kind of throwaway. It's experienced and then forgotten.
David Lynch
Intuition is knowingness, and this field of unbounded knowing, of knowingness, is within every human being. You start tapping into that and it becomes an ocean of solutions.
David Lynch
I love two-lane highways. They say something about the way things used to be, and about areas that don't have a lot of people. On those two-lanes at night you get the sense of moving into the unknown, and that's as thrilling a sense as human beings can have.
David Lynch
