More quotes by Melvin Van Peebles
I really like to talk to people and to get their take on things.
Melvin Van Peebles
I make a film like I cook for friends. I hope they like it, but if they don't, I'm prepared to enjoy it all by myself.
Melvin Van Peebles
I can't read or write music. When I want to remember something, I try to remember all the keys on the piano. Which is what I still do. I put the numbers on the keys. And that's got to become music again.
Melvin Van Peebles
Music is for theater like theater is for scripts. It's total: it's cyclical.
Melvin Van Peebles

Melvin Van Peebles
I don't consider myself a sociologist, I consider myself a filmmaker, among other things. Maybe an asshole but a filmmaker.
