More quotes by Stanley Kubrick
All my life I've always spoiled the things that meant the most to me.
Stanley Kubrick
I used and abused drugs and alcohol. When I stopped doing that it became a lot clearer that life goes from inside to giving as opposed to taking and destroying.
Stanley Kubrick
I'm not afraid of dying tomorrow, only of being killed.
Stanley Kubrick
The very meaninglessness of life forces man to create his own meaning. If it can be written or thought, it can be filmed.
Stanley Kubrick
Art consists of reshaping life but it does not create life, nor cause life.
Stanley Kubrick
Know what it is the emotional statement to convey, and use taste and judgement to help the actors give their best possible performance.
Stanley Kubrick
Anybody who runs is a VC. Anybody who stands still is a well-disciplined VC.
Stanley Kubrick
The truth of a thing is in the feel of it, not in the think of it.
Stanley Kubrick
Have you ever had a single moment's thought about my responsibilities?
Stanley Kubrick
One man writes a novel. One man writes a symphony. It is essential that one man make a film.
Stanley Kubrick
It's crazy how you can get yourself in a mess sometimes and not even be able to think about it with any sense and yet not be able to think about anything else.
Stanley Kubrick
New York was the only really hostile city. Perhaps there is a certain element of the lumpen literati that is so dogmatically atheist and materialist and Earth-bound that it finds the grandeur of space and the myriad mysteries of cosmic intelligence anathema.
Stanley Kubrick
Suppose by chance you do get picked up. What have you done? You shot a horse that isn't first degree murder in fact, it isn't even murder in fact, I don't know what it is.
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
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
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
The hardest thing in making a movie is to keep in the front of your consciousness your original response to the material. Because that's going to be the thing that will make the movie. And the loss of that will break the movie.
Stanley Kubrick
You sit at the board and suddenly your heart leaps. Your hand trembles to pick up the piece and move it. But what chess teaches you is that you must sit there calmly and think about whether it's really a good idea and whether there are other, better ideas.
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
The best education in film is to make one
