Orson Welles
A movie studio is the best toy a boy ever had.
Orson Welles
I'd make my promises now if I wasn't so busy arranging to keep them.
Orson Welles
Everybody denies I am a genius - but nobody ever called me one!
Orson Welles
I don't pray because I don't want to bore God.
Orson Welles
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
I don't say we all ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could.
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.
