More quotes by Martin Scorsese
I also saw the Dalai Lama a few times.
Martin Scorsese
There are two kinds of power you have to fight. The first is the money, and that's just our system. The other is the people close around you, knowing when to accept their criticism, knowing when to say no.
Martin Scorsese
The first element that I connected with was the emotion. Sorry, that's how it goes.
Martin Scorsese
The only way I was able to defend myself was to be able to take punishment. Then I got a lot of respect. They said, Oh, he's okay, he can take it. Don't hit him. The guys were pretty big, and I had asthma.
Martin Scorsese
I accept all awards. I like them.
Martin Scorsese
I was born in 1942, so I was mainly aware of Howard Hughes' name on RKO Radio Pictures.

Martin Scorsese
I don't like being in houses alone.
Martin Scorsese
I remember the Korean War very well. And I remember the soldiers who were POWs who supposedly were brainwashed, quote, unquote, who gave in, so to speak. And when they came back, they were treated like pariahs and traitors.
Martin Scorsese
I just wanted to be an ordinary parish priest.
Martin Scorsese
I don't know how else to tell the story except to utilise that vocabulary: the rain, the darkness, the mansions, the framing, etc, the lighting and that sort of thing.
Martin Scorsese
You have to put yourself in a situation, a lifestyle, that makes you do the work. Even if it's a monastery.
Martin Scorsese
My films really have to be a part of a whole body of work that says something to me.
Martin Scorsese
Could you double-check the envelope?
Martin Scorsese
I always tell the younger filmmakers and students: Do it like the painters used to...Study they old masters. Enrich your palette. Expand the canvas. There's always so much more to learn.
Martin Scorsese
My father had this mythological sense of the old New York, and he used to tell me stories about these old gangs, particularly the Forty Thieves in the Fourth Ward.
Martin Scorsese
As a kid I watched the Academy Awards on television and always wanted one - or several - like one of my favorite directions, John Ford. He won six. On the other hand, Orson Welles, who's on the top of my list, didn't win any. Alfred Hitchcock didn't win any. Howard Hawks didn't win any.
Martin Scorsese
People say you should do it this way, someone else suggests that, yes, there's financing, but maybe you should use this actor. And there are the threats, at the end - if you don't do it this way, you'll lose your box office if you don't do it that way, you'll never get financed again... 35, 40 years of this, you get beat up.
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
