More quotes by Orson Welles

Image
I have always been more interested in experiment, than in accomplishment.
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 prefer people who rock the boat to people who jump out
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
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
Image
Criminals are never very amusing. It's because they're failures. Those who make real money aren't counted as criminals. This is a class distinction, not an ethical problem.
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
The director is the most overrated artist in the world. He is the only artist who, with no talent whatsoever, can be a success for 50 years without his lack of talent ever being discovered.
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
The ideal American type is perfectly expressed by the Protestant, individualist, anti-conformist, and this is the type that is in the process of disappearing. In reality there are few left.
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
The cinema has no boundary it is a ribbon of dream.
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 feel I have to protect myself against things. So I'm pretty careful to lose most of them.
Orson Welles
Image
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
I don't think any word can explain a man's life.
Orson Welles
Image
You're beautful. Yes you are, you're very very beautiful. Extremely beautiful.
Orson Welles
Image
If I ever own a restaurant, I will never allow the waiters to ask if the diners like their dishes. Particularly when they're talking.
Orson Welles
Image
A movie studio is the best toy a boy ever had.
Orson Welles
Image
Hollywood is a gold-plated suburb suitable for golfers, gardeners, assorted middlemen, and contented movies stars. I am none of these things.
