Quote

I seem to have no dress sense at all. I'm always being listed in New York among one of the ten worst dressed men of the year. Someone once described me as looking like an unmade bed. He was right!

Friendship creates only the illusion of not being alone.
Orson Welles
Image
I think we're a kind of desperation. We're sort of a maddening luxury. The basic and essential human is the woman, and all that we're doing is trying to brighten up the place. That's why all the birds who belong to our sex have prettier feathers - because males have got to try and justify their existence.

As for my style, for my vision of the cinema, editing is not simply one aspect it's the aspect.
Orson Welles
Image
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.

Gluttony is not a secret vice.
Orson Welles
Image
The first thing one must remember about film is that it is a young medium. And it is essential for every responsible artist to cultivate the ground that has been left fallow.
Orson Welles
Image
The best thing commercially, which is the worst artistically, by and large, is the most successful.
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
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
Image
Only very intelligent people don't wish they were in politics, and I'm dumb enough to want to be in there.
Orson Welles
Image
I have always been more interested in experiment, than in accomplishment.
Orson Welles
Image
A man is not from where he is born, but where he chooses to die.
Orson Welles
Image
You're beautful. Yes you are, you're very very beautiful. Extremely beautiful.
Orson Welles
Image
There are only two emotions in a plane: boredom and terror.

Criticism is the essence of creation.
