More quotes by Martin Scorsese

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

Martin Scorsese
I'm trying to find out what the hell we - who we are.
Martin Scorsese
If everything moves along and there are no major catastrophes we're basically headed towards holograms.
Martin Scorsese
I think all the great studio filmmakers are dead or no longer working. I don't put myself, my friends, and other contemporary filmmakers in their category. I just see us doing some work.
Martin Scorsese
There is something particularly unique about the films of Hong Sang-soo...it's got to do with his masterful sense of storytelling... as the critic Manny Farber once said of Hitchcock's ROPE Hong Sang-soo's pictures unpeel like an orange.
Martin Scorsese
If we just sit and exist, and understand that, I think it will be helpful in a world that seems like a record that's going faster and faster, we're spinning off the edge of the universe.
Martin Scorsese
There's a way that the force of disappointment can be alchemized into something that will paradoxically renew you.
Martin Scorsese
