Stanley Kubrick
Don't do anything. Just tolerate me and let me suffer, knowing how you feel.
Stanley Kubrick
I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed, Mr. President, but I do say not more than ten to twenty million dead depending upon the breaks.
Stanley Kubrick
Bad films gave me the courage to try making a movie
Stanley Kubrick
Perhaps it sounds ridiculous, but the best thing that young filmmakers should do is to get hold of a camera and some film and make a movie of any kind at all.
Stanley Kubrick
God has a hard-on for a Marine because we kill everything we see. He plays His game, we play ours.
