More quotes by Orson Welles
I have an unfortunate personality.
Orson Welles
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.
Orson Welles
Human nature is eternal therefore one who follows his nature keeps his original nature, in the end.
Orson Welles
Hollywood expects you to experiment but on a film that makes money and if you don't make money, you're to blame. Your job is to make money.
Orson Welles
As for my style, for my vision of the cinema, editing is not simply one aspect it's the aspect.
Orson Welles
It isn't worth it. No money is worth this... [walks out]
Orson Welles

Orson Welles
I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.
Orson Welles

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
If there hadn't been women we'd still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.
Orson Welles
Fake is as old as the Eden tree.
Orson Welles
Ecstasy is not really part of the scene we can do on celluloid.
Orson Welles
Hollywood is a gold-plated suburb suitable for golfers, gardeners, assorted middlemen, and contented movies stars. I am none of these things.
Orson Welles
A director is someone who presides over a series of accidents.
Orson Welles
Nobody gets justice. People only get good luck or bad luck.
Orson Welles
I don't regard my career as something so precious that it comes before my convictions.
Orson Welles
I don't pray because I don't want to bore God.
Orson Welles
The laws and the stage, both are a form of exhibitionism.
Orson Welles
