More quotes by 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
Terrible things always seemed to happen to hitchhikers in movies - including my own. It has always been glamorous and dangerous and scary and sexy.
John Waters
The only time I had a normal boyfriend was during the time of AIDS, so maybe that saved me. It's certainly not karma.
John Waters
No comedy should be longer than 90 minutes. There's no such thing as a good long joke.
John Waters
God knows if you could start a new sex act that's more important than making a good movie.
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
I don't trust anyone that hasn't been to jail at least once in their life.
John Waters
It isn't enough to shock. It's easy to shock. Real surprise is what I'm after.
John Waters
I'm a film director. Gay is an adjective that I certainly am, but I don't know that it's my first one. I think if you're just a gay filmmaker, you get pigeonholed just like if you say I'm a black filmmaker, I'm a Spanish filmmaker, I'm a whatever.
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
Shutting down governments on your computer is just as much as fun as going to a riot at Yale.
John Waters
People always ask me what I'm doing on the subway, but I love it! Sometimes I like to ride in the front car and look out the window at the rats.
John Waters
I've had it with being nice, understanding, fair and hopeful. I feel like being negative all day. The chip on my shoulder could sink the QE2. I've got an attitude problem and nobody better get in my way...I'm in a bad mood and the whole stupid little world is gonna pay!
John Waters
A psychiatrist once told me early in treatment, Stop trying to make me like you, and what a sobering and welcome smack in the face that statement was. Yet somehow, every day of my life is still a campaign for popularity, or better yet, a crowded funeral.
John Waters
Everyone wants to be called an outsider so I'm a proud insider. If I was young I'd be in my parents' house shutting down the government on my computer. The new delinquent is the hacker.
John Waters
I think the extremes are something that's really interesting to see coalesce in movies.
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
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
[My catholic education] sticked with me. It caused the rage I had to make 'Pink Flamingos.'
John Waters
I wish something on T.V. would trouble me. Then maybe I would watch it.
John Waters
