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!

More quotes by Orson Welles
Friendship creates only the illusion of not being alone.
Orson Welles
I dont believe in learning from other peoples pictures. I think you should learn from your own interior vision of things and discover, as I say, Innocently, as though there had never been anybody.
Orson Welles
Working is part of life, I don't know how to distinguish between the two... Work is an expression of life.
Orson Welles
Nobody who takes on anything big and tough can afford to be modest.
Orson Welles
I don't think any word can explain a man's life.
Orson Welles
There are only two emotions in a plane: boredom and terror.
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
It isn't worth it. No money is worth this... [walks out]
Orson Welles
Good evening, ladies and gentleman. My name is Orson Welles. I am an actor. I am a writer. I am a producer. I am a director. I am a magician. I appear onstage and on the radio. Why are there so many of me and so few of you?
Orson Welles
I know people who have a much better recollection of their childhood than I do. They remember very well when they were a year and a half and two years old. I've only one or two daguerreotypes that come to mind.
Orson Welles
I hate Woody Allen physically, I dislike that kind of man.
Orson Welles
The essential is to excite the spectators. If that means playing Hamlet on a flying trapeze or in an aquarium, you do it.
Orson Welles
An artist is always out of step with the time. He has to be.
Orson Welles
The camera is much more than a recording apparatus, it is a medium via which messages reach us from another world.
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
A writer needs a pen, an artist needs a brush, but a filmmaker needs an army.
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
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
I hate women, hate them generally, not in particular but in an abstract way. I hate them because one never really learns anything about them. They are inscrutable.
Orson Welles
I have always been more interested in experiment, than in accomplishment.
Orson Welles
