The lion and the calf shall lie down together but the calf won't get much sleep.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm generally not a social dramatist or comedy writer. My interests have always been more in psychological stories or personal relations and comic ideas.
Woody Allen
Image
Not think of death as an end, but think of it more as a very effective way of cutting down on your expenses.
Woody Allen
Image
I tended to place my wife under a pedestal.
Woody Allen
Image
Some people are funny, and some people are not funny. Many people who are not funny can make a living at it. You don't have to be great to make a living at it. Just like a doctor who doesn't have to be great can still make a living out of it.

Culturally speaking, I was raised in a Jewish household. In addition to the religious side of it, I was taught respect for books and learning and the higher professions like medicine and law and teaching.

Your audience teaches you how to be funny.
Woody Allen

Life is unresolved, confusing, bewildering, puzzling, ambiguous. You don't really know what's going to happen. The future is uncertain for everybody.
Woody Allen
Image
I write the script nobody sees it, not the people that put the money in the picture. I cast who I want, and make the film. That's why I've always felt the only thing standing between me and greatness, is me. There's no excuse for me not to be great except that I'm not.

What do I dislike about death? Must be the hours.
Woody Allen
Image
Life is like a concentration camp... you can't leave without dying.
Woody Allen
Image
Heaven knows, we all make mistakes. That's life - and chess.
Woody Allen
Image
No one ever wants the whole script. I give the whole script to people who require the whole script but to those people who don't require the whole script I don't give it to them and no one cares. They're relieved not to have to read extra pages that they're not in.

Don't think of death as an ending. Think of it as a really effective way of cutting down your expenses.

I, interestingly, had dated a woman in the Eisenhower Administration briefly, and it was ironic to me 'cause I was trying to do toher what Eisenhower has been doing to the country for the last eight years.

I've never been an intellectual but I have this look.
Woody Allen
Image
Film is more of novelty, because I've done so much theater over many years. I'm in love with making movies. Also, I find it easier to remember three minutes of dialogue than three hours.
Woody Allen

Fantasy is only a state of mind that you can employ when existing in a real context.

The heart wants what it wants.

It is impossible to travel faster than light, and certainly not desirable, as one’s hat keeps blowing off.
