Woody Allen

Woody Allen
When a doctor makes a mistake, it's best to bury the subject.
Woody Allen

Woody Allen
There's no rhyme or reason to anything that I do. It's whatever seems right at the time.
Woody Allen

Woody Allen
I have a great admiration for English actors and actresses and have used them at every opportunity over the years, but now I won't have to import them to New York.
Woody Allen
One filmmaker makes films that are deep, intellectual, profound and confrontational. And the other one makes purely vacuous, escapist films. I'm not sure the one who makes escapist films is making a poorer contribution than the one who makes the deeper films.
Woody Allen
Magic has always been of a great interest of mine. I was an amateur magician when I was young. I used to practice and read up on it a lot. I'm well-aware of the history of magic.
Woody Allen
I always thought that as long as man is mortal, he will never be relaxed.
Woody Allen
Of all human weakness obsession is the most dangerous. And the silliest.
Woody Allen
