More quotes by Quentin Tarantino
If there is something magic about the collaborations I have with actors it's because I put the character first.
Quentin Tarantino
To me, America is just another market.
Quentin Tarantino
Sure, and that's the cool thing about DVD: you can pack stuff on the disc that would've been too much for the big screen because actually it would've only interested yourself and a bunch of fanboys, who wanna know everything.
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.
Quentin Tarantino
If I'm doing my job right, then I'm not writing the dialogue the characters are saying the dialogue, and I'm just jotting it down.
Quentin Tarantino
I am not going to tell you how I believe, but I do believe in God.
Quentin Tarantino
But the truth of the matter is, that was fairly, fairly early on in Goebbels' 800 movies that he made in Germany. The majority of them, especially once the war got going, you hardly saw Nazi officers in it at all. They were mostly musicals and comedies and melodramas and stories of great German men from the past.
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
Violence in real life is terrible violence in movies can be cool. It's just another colour to work with.
Quentin Tarantino
If I've made it a little easier for artists to work in violence, great! I've accomplished something.
Quentin Tarantino
Between men and women, all the time there is tension. I feel it. A woman walks down the street, and I'm going back, and suddenly there is this tension. I just walk down the street, we were just on the way. And she thinks I'm a rapist. And now I feel guilty, even though I'm a damn poor did not.
Quentin Tarantino
Clark Kent is how Superman views us. And what are the characteristics of Clark Kent. He's weak... he's unsure of himself... he's a coward. Clark Kent is Superman's critique on the whole human race.
Quentin Tarantino
I'll write for a while and then I'll find an appropriate song and in a weird way the music will keep me in the mood. I find music to define the mood of the movie, the rhythm the movie is going to play in.
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
What I would do is I would just remember the scene and I'd go home and I'd write out the scene from memory. And anything I didn't remember I would just fill in the blanks myself and then go and give it to a classmate and then we'd do it.
Quentin Tarantino
If I really considered myself a writer, I wouldn't be writing screenplays. I'd be writing novels.
Quentin Tarantino
I want to risk hitting my head on the ceiling of my talent. I want to really test it out and say: O.K., you're not that good. You just reached the level here. I don't ever want to fail, but I want to risk failure every time out of the gate.
Quentin Tarantino
But can I tell the genuine-article Italian from the poseur Italian? No. To me they all seem like poseurs.
Quentin Tarantino
I'm basically like, you know, learned pretty quickly the guy who throws the first punch usually wins, so when people gave me a hard time I just punched them.
Quentin Tarantino
I don't judge my characters, and that's my job not to judge them.
Quentin Tarantino
