Hello, I'm Shellie's new boyfriend and I'm out of my mind. If you so much as talk to her or even think her name, I'll cut you in ways that'll make you useless to a woman.
Frank Miller
What I want to bring back to superheroes with this project is a sense of play. Things have gotten so dreary. The heroes have gotten so ugly that even their muscles have muscles.
Frank Miller
I was always into noir. When I lived in Vermont I was drawing stuff that looked like an amateur doing 'Sin City'. When I first got to New York I was swiftly informed that they only did guys in tights.
Frank Miller
I'll make it. I won't die. I've got too much I have to do to let myself die.
Frank Miller
I realized that I was about to turn 30, and Batman was permanently 29. And I was going to be damned if I was older than Batman.
Frank Miller
This should be agony. I should be a mass of aching muscle - broken, spent, unable to move. And, were I an older man, I surely would ... ... but I'm a man of thirty - of twenty again. The rain on my chest is a baptism - I'm born again.
Frank Miller
Sometimes the solitary voice can be the best one.
Frank Miller
I think most things I read on the Internet and in newspapers are propaganda. Everyone from the 'New York Times' to Rupert Murdoch has a point of view and is putting forth their own propaganda. They're stuck with the facts as they are, but the way they interpret and frame them is wildly different.
Frank Miller
I'm not going to complain about the fact that people are paying attention to my work. I suppose that wouldn't be fair.
Frank Miller
I always knew it would come down to you and the big blue school boy. Planet's too big for the BOTH of you. When it all comes down, I want a piece of him. A small piece, will do? For OLD TIMES, sake, you know..it still hurts when its cold.
Frank Miller
In a way, 'Sin City''s designed to be paced somewhere between an American comic book and Japanese manga. Working in black and white, I realized that the eye is less patient, and you have to make your point, and sometimes repeat it. Slowing things down is harder in black and white, because there isn't as much for the eye to enjoy.
Frank Miller
I can tell you squat about Islam. I don’t know anything about it. But I know a goddamn lot about al Qaeda and I want them all to burn in hell.
Frank Miller
A man without hope is a man without fear.
Frank Miller
When you think of what Americans accomplished, building these amazing cities and all the good it's done in the world, it's kind of disheartening to hear so much hatred of America, not just from abroad, but internally.
Frank Miller
The noir hero is a knight in blood caked armor. He's dirty and he does his best to deny the fact that he's a hero the whole time.
Frank Miller
Hell's waking up every goddamn day and not even knowing why you're here.
Frank Miller
Hollywood is a town it's not a medium. And cinema is a medium you can practice anywhere.
Frank Miller
Comic-book pages are vertical, and movie screens are relentlessly horizontal. But it's all the same form. We use different tools, but we get the job done. I'm completely in love with CGI. It's great for conveying a cartoonist's sense of reality.
Frank Miller
I take away his weapon. Both of them.
Frank Miller
In the world of comic books, troublemaker means someone who has some sense of dignity.
