More quotes by Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
Any time you take a chance you better be sure the rewards are worth the risk because they can put you away just as fast for a ten dollar heist as they can for a million dollar job.
Stanley Kubrick
The dead know only one thing, it is better to be alive
Stanley Kubrick
I'm happy - at times - making films. I'm certainly unhappy not making films.
Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
Nothing is as dangerous as a sure thing.
Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
How does anybody ever think of anything?
Stanley Kubrick
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
Stanley Kubrick
There's something in the human personality which resents things that are clear, and conversely, something which is attracted to puzzles, enigmas, and allegories.
Stanley Kubrick
Shooting a movie is the worst milieu for creative work ever devised by man.
Stanley Kubrick
God has a hard-on for a Marine because we kill everything we see. He plays His game, we play ours.
Stanley Kubrick
The world's religions, for all their parochialism, did supply a kind of consolation for this great ache. This shattering recognition of our mortality is at the root of far more mental illness than I suspect even psychiatrists are aware.
Stanley Kubrick
I've never laid a cane on the back of a lord before, but if you force me to I shall speedily become used to the practice.
Stanley Kubrick
