More quotes by Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
Bad films gave me the courage to try making a movie
Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
I've never achieved spectacular success with a film. My reputation has grown slowly. I suppose you could say that I'm a successful filmmaker-in that a number of people speak well of me. But none of my films have received unanimously positive reviews, and none have done blockbuster business.
Stanley Kubrick
The dead know only one thing, it is better to be alive
Stanley Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick
You're an idealist, and I pity you as I would the village idiot.
Stanley Kubrick
A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what's behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
Stanley Kubrick
Busy people begrudge the days being short. I can no longer sit back and allow Communist infiltration, Communist indoctrination, Communist subversion, and the international Communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.
Stanley Kubrick
Nothing is as dangerous as a sure thing.
Stanley Kubrick
The truth of a thing is in the feel of it, not in the think of it.
Stanley Kubrick
I never learned anything at all in school and didn't read a book for pleasure until I was 19 years old.
Stanley Kubrick
I haven't had one sexual thought since the court martial.
Stanley Kubrick
You're constantly changing man. But the film's not changing. The film stays the same. That's the beautiful aspect of it.
Stanley Kubrick
