More quotes by John Waters
The way I photograph... in many ways it's directed by chance and all my mistakes, which are often the best stuff. I found that no matter if it's the same tape, the same TV, and the same camera, I can never duplicate an image... your arm jiggles, there's just too much chance. And I never put it on pause, or use any of that fancy equipment.
John Waters
Without obsession, life is nothing.
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
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
I liked speed. I was on black beauties all the time. Nothing bad happened to me. I didn't become a drug addict because I always had to make a movie. We weren't stoned when we made them I was stoned when I made movies up. I did them all.
John Waters
I wish something on T.V. would trouble me. Then maybe I would watch it.
John Waters
Not wanting anyone to pop my bubble by speaking to me, I immediately began reading Lesbian Nuns, and that did the trick. No one attempted small talk.
John Waters
I loved Cookie [Mueller]. She was a much better writer than actress. She shouldn't have stuck with me in the beginning she should have immediately become a writer. She would have had more of a chance.
John Waters
I love hipsters! Yes, I think they're hilarious. The really cute ones try to look ugly just to prove I can't be ugly. Normcore was kind of funny too.
John Waters
Well cult is a word you would never say in Hollywood. In any film business, if you're trying to get your next film made, you would never say, Oh, my last film was a cult film. I'd say, Oh great, well I hope this one isn't!
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.
John Waters
I have spoken, and I was understood. It's not like I'm a tragic person who wasn't understood. All those books are in print, all those movies are still out there, the audience gets younger. So I don't have that I've got to do one thing before I die. I did it.
John Waters
I came from a generation where women were almost deified, and like Groucho Marx's line, I wouldn't want to be a member of a club that would have me as a member, I thought, I wouldn't want to sleep with a woman who would sleep with me! It took me a long time to work my way through that.
John Waters
The further away I am from water, the less well I do!
John Waters
I never thought I'd be 52 years old. I don't think that anybody at 16 thinks like that.
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
I have no interest in cars. I have a plain, used Buick. I could run over 10 people, and you wouldn't be able to describe my car.
John Waters
It reinforced everything that I believe. I am an optimist. I believe in the goodness of people.
John Waters
It isn't enough to shock. It's easy to shock. Real surprise is what I'm after.
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
