I think Chelsea Girls is a complete masterpiece and I think Andy's [Warhol] films are equally as good as the art. I think one day they will be considered equal. They aren't yet. They will be.

More quotes by John Waters
My idea of rich is that you can buy every book you ever want without looking at the price and you're never around assholes. That's the two things to really fight for in life.
John Waters
I learned that people like my work because I praise things that others don't like.
John Waters
I love to read about anger. A feel bad book always makes me feel good. And no other novel in the history of literature is more depressing than Christina Stead's The Man Who Loved Children.
John Waters
It`s great to be able to drive around and spy on people, which I do when I'm writing. People tell me the most personal things about their lives for no reason - on airplanes, everywhere I go. People just blurt out secrets. I'm not sure why. I think that they see in my films that nothing will make me uptight. I'm not going to judge them.
John Waters
So many great people are dead, and so many assholes I know are still alive. Karma's bullshit. I wish it was true, but it ain't.
John Waters
It reinforced everything that I believe. I am an optimist. I believe in the goodness of people.
John Waters
I don't believe in depression. There's no such thing. It's an invention. It's bullshit, it's a cop out.
John Waters
I always say you need something weird on your face and some good shoes and nobody looks in the middle.
John Waters
There is right and there is wrong, I have NEVER been wrong.
John Waters
True success is figuring out your life and career so you never have to be around jerks.
John Waters
People that pick up hitchhikers I believe are basically good people that believe in other people and understand problems and don't judge people. That's always the kind of person I'm looking for.
John Waters
I am on the road all the time. Whether I'm in Paris or in a small college town in Texas, I can't tell the difference, and that's good. You don't have to leave where you were born to be cool anymore.
John Waters
Contemporary art hates you.
John Waters
How could you think of such awful things? liberal critics always ask. How else could I possibly amuse myself? I always wonder.
John Waters
Don’t sleep with people who don’t read.
John Waters
Aren't maids the ultimate art critics?
John Waters
To me, racist jokes are not funny. I am politically correct, in a weird way. I like to push the boundaries that are politically correct.
John Waters
The worst thing you can do is make a cult movie. That means you got three great reviews and nobody went. An art film means it got a lot of good reviews and nobody went. There is no such thing as a counter culture now. What used to be considered that is commercial now.
John Waters
There was a cultural war going on, the '60s was going on. All the film critics were square.
John Waters
Anyone from my past I'm interested in, I've already stalked their homes. I like to go outside.
