The less I speak to the actors, the better. And I always hire great people, and I don't want to impose my pre-conceived notions on them. They know how to play it.
Woody Allen
Image
I work all the time because it's a great distraction and it keeps me from sitting home and obsessing morbidly.
Woody Allen
Image
The best an idea gets is when its in your head.
Woody Allen
Image
I loathed every day and regret every day I spent in school. I like to be taught to read and write and add and then be left alone.
Woody Allen
Image
I prefer the magic to reality, and have since I was 5 years old. Hopefully, I can continue to make films and constantly escape into them.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm short enough and ugly enough to succeed on my own.
Woody Allen

There's nothing good about getting older-absolutely nothing-because the amount of wisdom and experience you gain is negligible compared to what you lose. You do gain a couple of things-you gain a little bittersweet and sour wisdom from your heartbreaks and failures and things-but what you lose is so catastrophic in every way.

I do occasionally envy the person who is religious naturally, without being brainwashed into it or suckered into it by all the organized hustles.
Woody Allen

I like broad comedy. If I had an idea tomorrow for a film that was all slapstick and broad comedy, and it was an idea that interested me, I would not hesitate to do it because I enjoy watching these kinds of film.

That’s one of the nice things about writing, or any art if the thing’s real, it just lives.
Woody Allen
Image
Nietzsche says that we will live the same life, over and over again. God - I'll have to sit through the Ice Capades again.
Woody Allen

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
Image
Because it's much more pleasant to be obsessed over how the hero gets out of his predicament than it is over how I get out of mine.

Believing would be easier if God would show himself by depositing a million dollars in a Swiss bank account in my name

In my house I'm the boss, my wife is just the decision maker.
Woody Allen

She had been critical of his new torch song, A Side Order of Heartache, Please, suggesting it could be used as a good way to break in their new paper shredder.

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.

I am thankful for laughter, except when milk comes out of my nose.
