Popularity should be no scale for the election of politicians. If it would depend on popularity, Donald Duck and The Muppets would take seats in senate.

More quotes by Orson Welles
Nobody who takes on anything big and tough can afford to be modest.
Orson Welles
In common with all Protestant or Jewish cultures, America was developed on the idea that your word is your bond. Otherwise, the frontier could never have been opened, 'cause it was lawless. A man's word had to mean something.
Orson Welles
Only in a police state is the job of a policeman easy.
Orson Welles
See, I believe that it is not true that different races and nations are alike. I'm profoundly convinced that that's a total lie. I think people are different. Sardinians, for example, have stubby little fingers. Bosnians have short necks.
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
Working is part of life, I don't know how to distinguish between the two... Work is an expression of life.
Orson Welles
I have an unfortunate personality.
Orson Welles
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
Orson Welles
Everybody denies I am a genius - but nobody ever called me one!
Orson Welles
I don't take art as seriously as politics.
Orson Welles
The best thing commercially, which is the worst artistically, by and large, is the most successful.
Orson Welles
The cinema has no boundary it is a ribbon of dream.
Orson Welles
We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.
Orson Welles
There are only two emotions in a plane: boredom and terror.
Orson Welles
Hollywood is the only industry, even taking in soup companies, which does not have laboratories for the purpose of experimentation.
Orson Welles
I have always been more interested in experiment, than in accomplishment.
Orson Welles
I dont believe in learning from other peoples pictures. I think you should learn from your own interior vision of things and discover, as I say, Innocently, as though there had never been anybody.
Orson Welles
I have made an art form of the interview. The French are the best interviewers, despite their addiction to the triad, like all Cartesians.
Orson Welles
I hate Woody Allen physically, I dislike that kind of man.
Orson Welles
I'm not basically a happy person, but I have all kinds of joy.
Orson Welles
