Stop blaming your parents. If you're really angry at 60 years old, you're an idiot! You've got to work some of it out.

More quotes by John Waters
Going to a sensational murder trial is the only way I can relax.
John Waters
Hairspray is the only movie I made that's subversive, because they're doing it in every high school in America. A man's playing a woman, and two men sing a love song to each other.
John Waters
Technique is nothing more than failed style.
John Waters
I think the extremes are something that's really interesting to see coalesce in movies.
John Waters
Everything makes you who you are, so I was lucky that I had a good family that was horrified by what I wanted to do but was also supportive of it, right to the very end.
John Waters
I actually think that my films are intellectual. I think almost everything I do is intellectual, but I would never say that, because that's a compliment. That's up to others to say about me. The same way, I would never say I do art. I think art is up to history. It's up to other people to utter that word. So I try to be humble.
John Waters
Coke didn't last long enough it gave me a hangover for two weeks for being high for ten minutes.
John Waters
Contemporary art hates you.
John Waters
I could never kill myself. I approve of suicide if you have horrible health. Otherwise it's the ultimate hissy fit.
John Waters
I go to colleges all the time in America, and everyone's gay, and I think how can this be? And it's only in rich schools. In poor schools, nobody's gay.
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
I think that young people understand me perfectly. I think that's the luckiest thing about my career, that I get older and they get younger, and it didn't stop with my generation.
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
Things are going great in every part of my life except movies. That's okay. I've got a lot of other parts of my life. I've made 15 movies. You can see any one of my movies and it says the same thing.
John Waters
My hobby is extreme Catholic behavior - before the Reformation.
John Waters
No comedy should be longer than 90 minutes. There's no such thing as a good long joke.
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
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
I like rap music. But bragging about being rich to poor people is really offensive. I want to hear a rap song about buying a Cy Twombly painting or dating a museum curator. I want to hear about that kind of rich.
John Waters
If you ever go home with somebody and they don't have books in their house, don't sleep with them. I think that's very important.
