More quotes by Woody Allen
In perpetrating a revolution, there are two requirements: someone or something to revolt against and someone to actually show up and do the revolting. Dress is usually casual and both parties may be flexible about time and place, but if either faction fails to attend, the whole enterprise is likely to come off badly.
Woody Allen
Between the Pope and air conditioning, I'd choose air conditioning.
Woody Allen
To me there’s no real difference between a fortune teller or a fortune cookie and any of the organized religions. They’re all equally valid or invalid, really. And equally helpful.
Woody Allen
If I just got up in the morning and had no place to go and was retired or something, I would be sitting there and be thinking, Gee, what is the purpose of life? Why are we all finite? Why do we get old and die? Is there nothing out there? Why is it so tragic? Why do our loved ones perish? Why do we generate? Who wants to think about that stuff
Woody Allen
I do the movies just for myself like an institutionalized person who basket-weaves. Busy fingers are happy fingers. I don't care about the films. I don't care if they're flushed down the toilet after I die.
Woody Allen

Woody Allen

Woody Allen
Of all human weakness obsession is the most dangerous. And the silliest.
Woody Allen
American films, it's a money-making industry. And in France, you can find great respect for cinema as art.
Woody Allen
If man were immortal, do you realize what his meat bills would be?
Woody Allen
I would never wanna belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member.
Woody Allen
That (sex) was the most fun I ever had without laughing.
Woody Allen
Paris is particularly beautiful in the rain. It was just a nice experience for me, a pleasant experience, and I was able to present it to the world through my eyes, very subjectively - not realistically, but subjectively.
Woody Allen
I consider myself a completely lucky filmmaker. I've had nothing but good luck. Everything I've needed has come my way.
Woody Allen
. . . they confuse everything I do with my life.
Woody Allen
There are two important things in the world, the first is sex. The other isn't all that important.
Woody Allen
Students achieving Oneness will move on to Twoness.
Woody Allen
It is no secret that organized crime in America takes in over forty billion dollars a year. This is quite a profitable sum, especially when one considers that the Mafia spends very little for office supplies.
