When it came to a lot of these German actors with the English, they just couldn't do it. They couldn't get the poetry out of it. They couldn't own it and make it their own. And then Christoph [Waltz] came in, and I didn't know who Christoph was.

Quentin Tarantino
Leni Riefenstahl was the one person Goebbels had no control over in the filmmaking community of Nazi Germany, and they despised each other. But because she was Hitler's favorite, she could do what she wanted. She was the only filmmaker that did not have to cow down to Joseph Goebbels.
Quentin Tarantino
If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't believe in elitism. I don't think the audience is this dumb person lower than me. I am the audience.
Quentin Tarantino
I steal from every movie ever made.
Quentin Tarantino
If you just love movies enough, you can make a good one.
Quentin Tarantino
ou know, if you want to see jackbooting Nazis in movies, you've got to watch American movies made at that time.
Quentin Tarantino
If you were a U.S. Cavalry guy and you thought you were going to be captured by the Apaches, you might kill yourself. If they were with their wives and they thought they were going to be captured, they would shoot their wives for fear of the Apaches getting them.
Quentin Tarantino
I am not going to tell you how I believe, but I do believe in God.
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
I'm not saying it's a bad thing to do, but when you try to deal with prescient themes in the present, that is what you're doing.
Quentin Tarantino
I like it when somebody tells me a story, and I actually really feel that that's becoming like a lost art in American cinema.
