More quotes by Martin Scorsese
I tried for about two semesters in a preparatory seminary. But I was about 15 and didn't fully understand what a vocation means.
Martin Scorsese
The creation of the island, or the impression of the island, as it changes in the mind of the character also came in to play... there was another very important collaborator, Rob Legato, on special visual effects. And then ultimately there's Thelma Schoonmaker, who keeps me focused during the editing of the picture.
Martin Scorsese
I'm going to be 60, and I'm almost used to myself.
Martin Scorsese
I love movies - it's my whole life, and that's it.
Martin Scorsese
The most important thing is, how can I move forward towards something that I can't articulate, that is new in storytelling with moving images and sound?
Martin Scorsese
I think if you think of yourself as religious and if you're given a gift, some may not think it's that great a gift - some critics. But others might, you know. So you say, look - whether it's good, bad or indifferent, this is what I do.
Martin Scorsese
The term 'giant' is used too often to describe artists. But in the case of Akira Kurosawa, we have one of the rare instances where the term fits.
Martin Scorsese
I just wanted to be an ordinary parish priest.
Martin Scorsese
I'm in a different chapter of my life. As time goes by and I grow older, I find that I need to just be quiet and think. There have been periods when I've locked myself away for days, but now it's different - I'm married and we have a daughter who is in my office the whole time.
Martin Scorsese
Always get to the set or the location early, so that you can be all alone and draw your inspiration for the blocking and the setups in private and quiet.
Martin Scorsese
You've got to love something enough to kill it.
Martin Scorsese
I don't like being in houses alone.
Martin Scorsese
I've been thrown out of schools and fired from jobs. I don't want to work. I can honestly say I haven't done an honest day's work in my life.
Martin Scorsese
Movies touch our hearts, and awaken our vision, and change the way we see things. They take us to other places. They open doors and minds. Movies are the memories of our lifetime. We need to keep them alive.
Martin Scorsese
Sometimes God picks you up and tells you, You've been messing around now. You're going to have to stop this, stop that, but I'll give you another chance. And you wonder why you're given another chance. It must be for something it must be to celebrate life.
Martin Scorsese
Watching a Kubrick film is like gazing up at a mountaintop. You look up and wonder, how could anyone have climbed that high?
Martin Scorsese
I would ask: Given the nature of free-market capitalism - where the rule is to rise to the top at all costs - is it possible to have a financial industry hero? And by the way, this is not a pop-culture trend we're talking about. There aren't many financial heroes in literature, theater or cinema.
Martin Scorsese
There's a way that the force of disappointment can be alchemized into something that will paradoxically renew you.
Martin Scorsese
One of the things is that the good intentions of Prohibition, from reading over the years and from becoming obsessed with the research of gangs in New York City, seems to have allowed crime figures at the time, like Luciano, Capone, Torrio and Rothstein, to organize to become more powerful, which pulled all the way through until the '70s.
Martin Scorsese
I accept all awards. I like them.
Martin Scorsese
