Woody Allen

Woody Allen
In my house I'm the boss, my wife is just the decision maker.
Woody Allen
Doing abominations is against the law, particularly if the abominations are done while wearing a lobster bib.
Woody Allen

Woody Allen
A tree never hits an automobile except in self defense.
Woody Allen
I never think I feel cynical in general. Cynical is reality with an alternate spelling. I feel there's a gigantic amount of injustice and overt crime every day in the world, from emotional crimes to international crimes, and it often carries rewards.
Woody Allen
I don't want to achieve immortality through my work. I want to achieve it through not dying.
Woody Allen
I don't mind dying... as long as I don't have to be there when it happens.
Woody Allen
