More quotes by Orson Welles
My definition of success is not having things thrown at me!
Orson Welles
The director is simply the audience. His job is to preside over accidents.
Orson Welles
In my real movie-going days, which were the thirties, you didn't stand in line. You strolled down the street and sallied into the theater at any hour of the day or night.
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
I don't want any description of me to be accurate I want it to be flattering. I don't think people who have to sing for their supper ever like to be described truthfully - not in print anyway. We need to sell tickets, so we need good reviews.
Orson Welles
A writer needs a pen, an artist needs a brush, but a filmmaker needs an army.
Orson Welles
I don't pray because I don't want to bore God.
Orson Welles
A bad word from a colleague can darken a whole day. We need encouragement a lot more than we admit, even to ourselves.
Orson Welles
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
Every true artist must, in his own way, be a magician, a charlatan.
Orson Welles
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
Orson Welles
Only in a police state is the job of a policeman easy.
Orson Welles
It would be so much better if the critics would come, not on first nights, but on last nights, when they could exercise their undoubted flair for funeral orations.
Orson Welles
I don't regard my career as something so precious that it comes before my convictions.
Orson Welles
I started at the top and worked my way down.
Orson Welles
I don't think any word can explain a man's life.
Orson Welles
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
Every actor in his heart believes everything bad that's printed about him.
Orson Welles
A good artist should be isolated. If he isn't isolated, something is wrong.
Orson Welles
I hate it when people pray on the screen. It's not because I hate praying, but whenever I see an actor fold his hands and look up in the spotlight, I'm lost. There's only one other thing in the movies I hate as much, and that's sex. You just can't get in bed or pray to God and convince me on the screen.
Orson Welles
