If my soul exists without my body I am convinced all my clothes will be loose-fitting
Woody Allen

In my house I'm the boss, my wife is just the decision maker.
Woody Allen
Image
There is no justice, there is no rational structure to it [life]. That is just the way it is, and each person figures out some way to cope.
Woody Allen
Image
It's a match made in heaven...by a retarded angel.
Woody Allen
Image
Why not? Life is short, life is dull, life is full of pain - and this is a chance for something special.
Woody Allen
Image
There is something about big cities that turns me on, and for whatever mysterious reason, places like New York and Paris inspire me. I think it's because cities represent civilization, and as crime-ridden and broken down as some of them are, it's still better than skipping through a meadow.

I could turn on my radio in the morning when I was getting dressed for school and hear Frank Sinatra and Duke Ellington and Benny Goodman and think this is the music. Now that music is art. Ellington is art. At that time it was just what you heard on the radio. Cole Porter was just a guy who wrote pretty songs and Billie Holliday would sing them.

The film studios learned to our dismay but to their pleasure that if they spent $200 million making a film they could make half a billion on it. So they were not interested anymore in quality films... They can't afford to be that risky at those prices. Consequently you're getting a lot of remakes, sequels, dopey comedies full of toilet jokes...
Woody Allen

Drama, it would be as if you wrote some poetry. You'd run the risk of being embarrassed if people read it, because you're pouring your heart out and you're not mitigating it with any humor or anything.
Woody Allen
Image
Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.
Woody Allen
Image
I was nauseous and tingly all over. I was either in love or I had smallpox.
Woody Allen
Image
If my films make one more person miserable, I'll feel I have done my job.
Woody Allen
Image
I am an only child. I have one sister.
Woody Allen
Image
Photons have mass? I didn’t even know they were Catholic.
Woody Allen
Image
Some people want to achieve immortality through their works or their descendants. I prefer to achieve immortality by not dying.
Woody Allen

The last woman I was in was the Statue of Liberty.
Woody Allen
Image
My parents were very Old World. They come from Brooklyn, which is the heart of the Old World. Their values in life are God and carpeting.
Woody Allen
Image
I've become the person I've always hated, but I'm happier.
Woody Allen

Sex and death. Two things that come but once in my lifetime, but at least after death you're not nauseous.
