More quotes by Orson Welles
Did you ever stop to think why cops are always famous for being dumb? Simple. Because they don't have to be anything else.
Orson Welles
I'd make my promises now if I wasn't so busy arranging to keep them.
Orson Welles
In common with all Protestant or Jewish cultures, America was developed on the idea that your word is your bond. Otherwise, the frontier could never have been opened, 'cause it was lawless. A man's word had to mean something.
Orson Welles
'The Godfather' was the glorification of a bunch of bums who never existed.
Orson Welles
If you've noticed that I don't use long takes, it's not because I don't like them, but because no one gives me the necessary means to treat myself to them. It's more economical to make one image, then this image and then that image, and try to control them later, in the editing studio.
Orson Welles
I don't say we all ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could.
Orson Welles
Everybody denies I am a genius - but nobody ever called me one!
Orson Welles

Orson Welles
A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.
Orson Welles
I don't regard my career as something so precious that it comes before my convictions.
Orson Welles
Almost all serious stories in the world are stories of failure with a death in it. But there is more lost paradise in them than defeat.
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.
Orson Welles
I don't pray because I don't want to bore God.
Orson Welles
My kind of director is an actor-director who writes.
Orson Welles
Living in the lap of luxury isn't bad except that you never know when luxury is going to stand up.
Orson Welles
A man is not from where he is born, but where he chooses to die.
Orson Welles
