More quotes by Orson Welles
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
Orson Welles
They teach anything in universities today. You can major in mud pies.
Orson Welles
I don't want any description of me to be accurate I want it to be flattering. I don't think people who have to sing for their supper ever like to be described truthfully - not in print anyway. We need to sell tickets, so we need good reviews.
Orson Welles
I'd make my promises now if I wasn't so busy arranging to keep them.
Orson Welles
If I ever own a restaurant, I will never allow the waiters to ask if the diners like their dishes. Particularly when they're talking.
Orson Welles
A movie studio is the best toy a boy ever had.
Orson Welles
If I don't like somebody's looks, I don't like them.
Orson Welles
I hate it when people pray on the screen. It's not because I hate praying, but whenever I see an actor fold his hands and look up in the spotlight, I'm lost. There's only one other thing in the movies I hate as much, and that's sex. You just can't get in bed or pray to God and convince me on the screen.
Orson Welles
Hollywood expects you to experiment but on a film that makes money and if you don't make money, you're to blame. Your job is to make money.
Orson Welles
A director is someone who presides over a series of accidents.
Orson Welles
Crooks aren't the worst people, just the stupidest. The fleas of the world.
Orson Welles
Anybody who speaks quietly and shrivels up in company is unbelievably arrogant.
Orson Welles
I'm extremely surprised to learn that a story, which has become familiar to children through the medium of comic strips and many succeeding novels and adventure stories, should have had such an immediate and profound effect upon radio listeners.
Orson Welles
There are only two emotions in a plane: boredom and terror.
Orson Welles
What's happening now is what happened before, and often what's going to happen again sometime or other
Orson Welles
I passionately hate the idea of being with it I think an artist has always to be out of step with his time.
Orson Welles
People are losing the capacity to listen to words or follow ideas.
Orson Welles
I have always been more interested in experiment, than in accomplishment.
Orson Welles
My definition of success is not having things thrown at me!
Orson Welles
The laws and the stage, both are a form of exhibitionism.
Orson Welles
