My relationship with American audiences is the exact same as it always has been. They never came to see my films, and they don't come now.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm a terrible musician. While the band members are great, I'm tolerated and affectionately regarded because I do movies, but if I had to make my living as a musician I would starve. I'm like a Sunday tennis player.

Image
What is it about death that bothers me? Probably the hours.
Woody Allen
Image
I wish my parents had raised me in Manhattan because I think it's the greatest thing you can do for a kid is to raise them in New York City. I can see this with my own children.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm really impotent against the overwhelming bleakness of the universe and the only thing I can do is my little gift [filmmaking] and do it the best I can, [...] which is cold comfort.
Woody Allen
Image
I can live in Paris for four months or London or, you know, Barcelona. These are places that are like New York. But I don't think I could live in many places. When I had to make a film in the United States I picked San Francisco because to me it's one of the great cities of America.

When I'm writing something, if there's a part that's good for me, then I'll play it. Otherwise, I don't. And I notice that there are less and less parts for me in my own writing.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm a teleological, existential agnostic.
Woody Allen
Image
Comedy just pokes at problems, rarely confronts them squarely. Drama is like a plate of meat and potatoes, comedy is rather the dessert, a bit like meringue.
Woody Allen
Image
People still have existential anxiety. It just may not be expressed in Hebraic idiom.
Woody Allen
Image
I sued American Apparel because they calculatingly took my name, my likeness and image and used them publicly to promote their business.
Woody Allen
Image
I'm going to my psychoanalyst one more year, then I'm going to Lourdes.
Woody Allen
Image
My luck is getting worse and worse. Last night, for instance, I was mugged by a quaker.
Woody Allen
Image
If you aren't failing, you aren't trying.
Woody Allen
Image
Marriage is the death of hope.
Woody Allen
Image
When the Academy called, I panicked. I thought they might want their Oscars back and the pawn shop has been out of business for a while.
Woody Allen
Image
To me nature is... spiders and bugs, and big fish eating little fish, and plants eating plans, and animals eating... It's like an enormous restaurant, that's the way I see it.
Woody Allen
Image
The French make two mistakes about me. They think I'm an intellectual because I wear these glasses and they think I'm an artist because my films lose money.
