Stanley Kubrick
Take a stress pill and think things over-- HAL in 2001
Stanley Kubrick
It's impossible to tell you what I'm going to do except to say that I expect to make the best movie ever made.
Stanley Kubrick
Anybody who runs is a VC. Anybody who stands still is a well-disciplined VC.
Stanley Kubrick
A film needs more than you can give it in a lifetime.
Stanley Kubrick
The best education in film is to make one
Stanley Kubrick
If you can talk brilliantly about a problem, it can create the consoling illusion that it has been mastered.
Stanley Kubrick
Everybody has their black moments.
