More quotes by Martin Scorsese
I still dislike phones, yeah!
Martin Scorsese
We cannot burn Mick Jagger. We want the effect, but we can't burn him.
Martin Scorsese
Your job is to get your audience to care about your obsessions.
Martin Scorsese
You gotta understand, when moving images first started, people wanted sound, color, big screen and depth.
Martin Scorsese
I just wanted to be an ordinary parish priest.
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
You have to put yourself in a situation, a lifestyle, that makes you do the work. Even if it's a monastery.
Martin Scorsese
I think there's only one or two films where I've had all the financial support I needed. All the rest, I wish I'd had the money to shoot another ten days.
Martin Scorsese
I grew up in the Lower East Side, an Italian American - more Sicilian, actually.
Martin Scorsese
That subject matter has never left me...The more you're in the material world, the more there is a tendency for a search for serenity and a need to not be distracted by physical elements that are around you.
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
Vertigo is probably my favourite Hitchcock film and probably one of my favourite films of all time. It's a film that I'm obsessed with. I saw it on its first release in vista vision, projected in vista-vision, at the Capitol Theatre in New York. That moment when the nun comes up in the end... it's just an extraordinary shot.
Martin Scorsese
As you grow older, you change.
Martin Scorsese
Every scene is a lesson. Every shot is a school. Let the learning continue.
Martin Scorsese
There was always a part of me that wanted to be an old-time director. But I couldn't do that. I'm not a pro.
Martin Scorsese
In truly great films - the ones that people need to make, the ones that start speaking through them, the ones that keep moving into territory that is more and more unfathomable and uncomfortable - nothing's ever simple or neatly resolved. You're left with a mystery.
Martin Scorsese
I love movies - it's my whole life, and that's it.
Martin Scorsese
You've got to protect whatever creative talent you have left.
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
Working with HBO was an opportunity to experience creative freedom and 'long-form development' that filmmakers didn't have a chance to do before the emergence of shows like 'The Sopranos.'
Martin Scorsese
