Quote

I think I've gotten technically better over the years but you'd have to be a fool not to. I've made so many movies that by sheer quantity you get better at the technique.

Confidence is what you have before you understand the problem.
Woody Allen
Image
I have no regard for that kind of ceremony. I just don't think they know what they're doing. When you see who wins those things-or who doesn't win them-you can see how meaningless this Oscar thing is.

Honey! Bring down a copy of my will - and an eraser!

I prefer to achieve immortality by not dying.
Woody Allen
Image
What do I dislike about death? Must be the hours.
Woody Allen
Image
Eternal nothingness is fine if you happen to be dressed for it.
Woody Allen
Image
Some people want to achieve immortality through their works or their descendants. I prefer to achieve immortality by not dying.

When you make the film, there's a big difference between when you're in your own home at the typewriter, and when you're standing on a mountain, or on a street corner, and buses are coming by-it's a different reality. You make a million changes that were never in the script, but that reality dictates.

Life is like a concentration camp... you can't leave without dying.
Woody Allen
Image
It is impossible to travel faster than light, and certainly not desirable, as one’s hat keeps blowing off.
Woody Allen
Image
All over the world, relationships between men and women are very, very tricky and very difficult and you don't learn anything. It's not an exact science, so you can't learn anything. You're always going by instinct and your instinct betrays you because you want what you want when you want it.
Woody Allen
Image
I'd never join a club that would allow a person like me to become a member.
Woody Allen
Image
I know what I think but I don't know how to put it into words. Maybe I could get a little bit drunk and dance it for you.
Woody Allen
Image
If I can play a scene in a master shot, I always prefer it. And the actors always prefer it. It's fun to look at on the screen, the actors get a chance to sink their teeth into something substantial, and it's economically helpful.
Woody Allen
Image
I don't know what I'm doing, but my incompetence has never stopped my enthusiasm.
Woody Allen
Image
I don't think my parents liked me. They put a live teddy bear in my crib.
Woody Allen
Image
Science is an intellectual dead end, you know? It's a lot of little guys in tweed suits cutting up frogs on foundation grants.
Woody Allen
Image
For God sakes, this is a woman I was married to for 10 years. We made love. I'd hold her head over the toilet bowl when she threw up.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm a teleological, existential agnostic.
Woody Allen
Image
I never knew what Amazon was. I've never seen any of those series, even on cable. I've never seen The Sopranos, or Mad Men. I'm out every night and when I come home, I watch the end of the baseball or basketball game, and there's Charlie Rose and I go to sleep.
