More quotes by Quentin Tarantino
... Revenge, ... All of a sudden, revenge started brewing in the back of their minds.
Quentin Tarantino
I just don't feel the whole white guilt and pussy-footing around race issues. I'm completely above all that. I've never worried about what anyone might think of me 'cause I've always believed that the true of heart recognize the true of heart.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't have any bone to pick with critics. In fact, if I wasn't a filmmaker I would probably be a film critic. Most of my bone is I would be a better film critic than most of the film critics I read.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't want to deal with the underneath while I'm, you know, while I'm making it or while I'm writing it or when I'm making it. Because again, I don't want to hit these nails on the head too strongly.
Quentin Tarantino
When I'm writing something, I try not to get analytical about it as I'm doing it, as I'm writing it.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't think there's anything to be afraid of. Failure brings great rewards - in the life of an artist.

I won't even think about acting in a role where I didn't do a back story for a character.
Quentin Tarantino
To me, movies and music go hand in hand. When I'm writing a script, one of the first things I do is find the music I'm going to play for the opening sequence.
Quentin Tarantino
I see characters lying all the time in a lot of Hollywood movies. They can't do this because it would affect the movie this way or that or this demographic might not like it. To me a character can't do anything good or bad, they can only do something that's true or not.
Quentin Tarantino
A lot of them [Germaqn actors] could come in and we could speak for the next nine hours in English and there would be no problem. It was - but it was - English wasn't the language for them to read poetry in. And there is a - there's a poetic quality to my dialogue.
Quentin Tarantino
When I was on The View, Barbara Walters was asking me about the blood and stuff, and I said, 'Well, you know, that's a staple of Japanese cinema.' And then she came back, 'But this is America.' And I go, 'I don't make movies for America. I make movies for planet Earth.'
Quentin Tarantino
Dogs got personality. Personality goes a long way.
Quentin Tarantino
The next movie will be in Mandarin. I enjoyed shooting all the Japanese stuff in Kill Bill so much that this whole film will be entirely in Mandarin.
Quentin Tarantino
I laugh all the time. I'm an easy laugher. You can find me on any set, because I'm always laughing.
Quentin Tarantino
Pigs are filthy animals. I don't eat filthy animals.
Quentin Tarantino
You always have to be keeping track, especially in this scenario [ The Hateful Eight], of where everybody is. They're pieces on a chess board.
