Francis Ford Coppola

Francis Ford Coppola
If I have to be remembered for something, I want it remembered that I really liked children and was a good camp counselor.

Francis Ford Coppola
We had access to too much equipment, too much money, and little by little we went insane.
Francis Ford Coppola
My family were symphonic musicians and in the opera. Also, it was my era, the love of radio. We used to listen to the radio at night, close our eyes and see movies far more beautiful than you can photograph.
Francis Ford Coppola
I was a pretty shy, lonely kid. I blossomed about age 17, when I went to college.
Francis Ford Coppola
Wine is so much more than a beverage. It's a romance, a story, a drama-all of those things that are basically putting on a show.
Francis Ford Coppola
Art depends on luck and talent.
Francis Ford Coppola
I've been offered lots of movies. There's always some actor who's doing a project and would like to have me do it.
Francis Ford Coppola
Work on nothing less than epic scale
Francis Ford Coppola
There can't be art without risk. It's like saying No Sex, and then expecting there to be children.
Francis Ford Coppola
