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
Image
Only very intelligent people don't wish they were in politics, and I'm dumb enough to want to be in there.
Orson Welles
Image
I have the terrible feeling that, because I am wearing a white beard and am sitting in the back of the theatre, you expect me to tell you the truth about something. These are the cheap seats, not Mount Sinai.
Orson Welles
Image
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
Image
My mother and father were both much more remarkable than any story of mine can make them. They seem to me just mythically wonderful.
Orson Welles
Image
I must be sincere towards what I am. ... Experimenting is the only thing that fills me with enthusiasm. ... It is the only sphere where I feel really honest and sincere.
Orson Welles
Image
Nobody gets justice. People only get good luck or bad luck.
Orson Welles
Image
I think we're a kind of desperation. We're sort of a maddening luxury. The basic and essential human is the woman, and all that we're doing is trying to brighten up the place. That's why all the birds who belong to our sex have prettier feathers - because males have got to try and justify their existence.

Image
I was spoiled in a very strange way as a child, because everybody told me, from the moment I was able to hear, that I was absolutely marvelous, and I never heard a discouraging word for years, you see. I didn't know what was ahead of me.
Orson Welles
Image
One should make movies innocently - the way Adam and Eve named the animals, their first day in the garden. Learn from your own interior vision of things, as if there had never been a D.W.Griffith, or a Eisenstein, or a [John] Ford, or a [Jean] Renoir, or anybody.
Orson Welles
Image
I hate women, hate them generally, not in particular but in an abstract way. I hate them because one never really learns anything about them. They are inscrutable.
Orson Welles
Image
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
Image
Only in a police state is the job of a policeman easy.
Orson Welles
Image
Every true artist must, in his own way, be a magician, a charlatan.
Orson Welles
Image
I worry a lot about taking care of my dependents, all those perfectly ordinary middle-class preoccupations.
Orson Welles
Image
I prefer people who rock the boat to people who jump out
Orson Welles
Image
By nature, I am an experimentalist. I don't believe much in accomplishment.
Orson Welles
Image
I think I made essential a mistake in staying in movies, because I - but it's a mistake I can't regret, because it's like saying, 'I shouldn't have stayed married to that woman, but I did because I love her.'
Orson Welles
Image
I love informality. I hate dressing up. I hate to be conventional - and I hate every kind of snob.
Orson Welles
Image
I don't regard my career as something so precious that it comes before my convictions.
