Orson Welles
I don't say we all ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could.
Orson Welles

Orson Welles
I feel I have to protect myself against things. So I'm pretty careful to lose most of them.
Orson Welles

Orson Welles
People are losing the capacity to listen to words or follow ideas.
Orson Welles
Nobody who takes on anything big and tough can afford to be modest.
Orson Welles
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
