Stanley Kubrick
Anybody who runs is a VC. Anybody who stands still is a well-disciplined VC.
Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
You know, I often thought that the gangster and the artist are the same in the eyes of the masses. They're admired and hero-worshipped but there is always present underlying desire to see them destroyed at the peak of their glory.
Stanley Kubrick
It's a mistake to confuse pity with love.
Stanley Kubrick
A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction.
Stanley Kubrick
