More quotes by Orson Welles
I don't regard my career as something so precious that it comes before my convictions.
Orson Welles
I don't say we all ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could.
Orson Welles
Gluttony is not a secret vice.
Orson Welles
Only very intelligent people don't wish they were in politics, and I'm dumb enough to want to be in there.
Orson Welles
Criticism is the essence of creation.
Orson Welles
The essential is to excite the spectators. If that means playing Hamlet on a flying trapeze or in an aquarium, you do it.
Orson Welles
I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.
Orson Welles
The director is simply the audience. His job is to preside over accidents.
Orson Welles
My kind of director is an actor-director who writes.
Orson Welles
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
The laws and the stage, both are a form of exhibitionism.
Orson Welles
A man is not from where he is born, but where he chooses to die.
Orson Welles
You're beautful. Yes you are, you're very very beautiful. Extremely beautiful.
Orson Welles
The trouble with a movie is that it's old before it's released. It's no accident that it comes in a can.
Orson Welles
The classy gangster is a Hollywood invention.
Orson Welles
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
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 do not suppose I shall be remembered for anything. But I don't think about my work in those terms. It is just as vulgar to work for the sake of posterity as to work for the sake of money.
Orson Welles
I prefer people who rock the boat to people who jump out
Orson Welles
I feel I have to protect myself against things. So I'm pretty careful to lose most of them.
