In the theater there are 1,500 cameras rolling at the same time - in the cinema, only one.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

I don't want any description ...

I don't want any description of me to be accurate; I want it to be flattering. I don't think people who have to sing for their supper ever like to be described truthfully - not in print anyway. We need to sell tickets, so we need good reviews.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

On my tombstone, I want written: 'He never did 'Love Boat!''

Orson Welles 258 quotes

If I want to pursue the art o...

If I want to pursue the art of painting - or music or writing or sculpture - it requires only my time and a few dollars for materials. If, however, I want to produce a motion picture I have to go out and raise a million dollars!

I have all the equipment to be a politician. Total shamelessness.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

Hollywood expects you to expe...

Hollywood expects you to experiment but on a film that makes money and if you don't make money, you're to blame. Your job is to make money.

We will sell no wine before its time.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

By nature, I am an experiment...

By nature, I am an experimentalist. I don't believe much in accomplishment.

We made civilization in order to impress our girlfriends.

I discovered at the age of six that everything was a phony, worked with mirrors. Since then, I've always wanted to be a magician.

I love moving around from town to town. I never got on a train in my life without my spirits rising.

I must be sincere towards what I am. ... Experimenting is the only thing that fills me with enthusiasm. ... It is the only sphere where I feel really honest and sincere.

My definition of success is not having things thrown at me!

Orson Welles 258 quotes

I hate it when people pray on...

I hate it when people pray on the screen. It's not because I hate praying, but whenever I see an actor fold his hands and look up in the spotlight, I'm lost. There's only one other thing in the movies I hate as much, and that's sex. You just can't get in bed or pray to God and convince me on the screen.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

I'd make my promises now if I...

I'd make my promises now if I wasn't so busy arranging to keep them.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

One should make movies innoce...

One should make movies innocently - the way Adam and Eve named the animals, their first day in the garden. Learn from your own interior vision of things, as if there had never been a D.W.Griffith, or a Eisenstein, or a [John] Ford, or a [Jean] Renoir, or anybody.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

I think I made essential a mi...

I think I made essential a mistake in staying in movies, because I - but it's a mistake I can't regret, because it's like saying, 'I shouldn't have stayed married to that woman, but I did because I love her.'

I've always found it very sanitary to be broke.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

At twenty-one, so many things...

At twenty-one, so many things appear solid, permanent, untenable.

Orson Welles 258 quotes

If you've noticed that I don'...

If you've noticed that I don't use long takes, it's not because I don't like them, but because no one gives me the necessary means to treat myself to them. It's more economical to make one image, then this image and then that image, and try to control them later, in the editing studio.
