I'm not going to complain about the fact that people are paying attention to my work. I suppose that wouldn't be fair.

More quotes by Frank Miller
I grew up on the crime stuff. Spillane, Chandler, Jim Thompson, and noir movies like Fuller, Orson Welles, Fritz Lang. When I first showed up in New York to write comics back in the late 1970s, I came with a bunch of crime stories but everybody just wanted men in tights.
Frank Miller
Sometimes the solitary voice can be the best one.
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
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
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
A gun is a liar's weapon
Frank Miller
The world doesn't make sense until you force it to.
Frank Miller
I guess in my own egotistical way I like to create my own library of Batman books that doesn't run contrary to a single thing that has been published before, but it also stands on its own.
Frank Miller
Alfred: Hmf. I suppose you'll take up flying next, like that fellow in Metropolis.
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
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
News objectivity is a twentieth-century myth. We only complain about propaganda when we don't agree with it.
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
Hollywood is a town it's not a medium. And cinema is a medium you can practice anywhere.
Frank Miller
Hell's waking up every goddamn day and not even knowing why you're here.
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'm a comic book artist. So I think to myself, what do I like to draw? I like to draw hot chicks, fast cars and cool guys in trench coat. So that's what I write about.
Frank Miller
Of course we're Criminals
Frank Miller
A man without hope is a man without fear.
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.
