Orson Welles
A director is someone who presides over a series of accidents.
Orson Welles
Personally, I don't like a girlfriend to have a husband. If she'll fool her husband, I figure she'll fool me.
Orson Welles

Orson Welles
I hate Woody Allen physically, I dislike that kind of man.
Orson Welles
The best thing commercially, which is the worst artistically, by and large, is the most successful.
Orson Welles
The first thing one must remember about film is that it is a young medium. And it is essential for every responsible artist to cultivate the ground that has been left fallow.
Orson Welles
What's happening now is what happened before, and often what's going to happen again sometime or other
Orson Welles
The laws and the stage, both are a form of exhibitionism.
