More quotes by John Waters
The further away I am from water, the less well I do!
John Waters
Shutting down governments on your computer is just as much as fun as going to a riot at Yale.
John Waters
Baltimore never changes much. People aren't impressed by anything. It's great it's not a trendy town.
John Waters
Sometimes I wish I was a woman, just so I could have an abortion.
John Waters
I understand why people want to look up their friends - usually they want to see what people they've wanted to have sex with look like.
John Waters
Contemporary art hates you.
John Waters
I never thought I'd be 52 years old. I don't think that anybody at 16 thinks like that.
John Waters

John Waters
I've signed peoples' parole cards at book signings and it's very touching.
John Waters
It isn't enough to shock. It's easy to shock. Real surprise is what I'm after.
John Waters
If you purposefully look to shock people, it isn't funny. That's what 50 million dollar Hollywood comedies do try to be shocking and dirty.
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
I learned that people like my work because I praise things that others don't like.
John Waters
Everybody should wish they had home movies of themselves, acting out their lunacy on LSD.
John Waters
I probably would have made [films] anywhere. Every city has something they're ashamed of. I would have made films about it and turned it into something positive.
John Waters
I was as equally influenced by Bergman as I was [low-budget sexploitation filmmaker].
John Waters
When I started my goal was to make a successful underground movie. I started making movies in the mid-60s. Underground cinema then only lasted about two or three years.
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
My idea of an interesting person is someone who is quite proud of their seemingly abnormal life and turns their disadvantage into a career.
John Waters
Valentine's Day is my mother's birthday. If I'm wildly in love, I've sent people chicken hearts, which seems to appeal to the kind of person that I've been in love with.
John Waters
