Text Quotes
All my life I’ve always spoiled the things that meant the most to me  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) Don’t do anything. Just tolerate me and let me suffer, knowing how you feel  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) I love editing. I think I like it more than any other phase of film making. If I wanted to be frivolous, I might say that everything that precedes editing is merely a way of producing film to edit  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) Critical opinion on my films has always been salvaged by what I would call subsequent critical opinion  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The dead know only one thing, it is better to be alive  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) It's crazy how you can get yourself in a mess sometimes and not even be able to think about it with any sense and yet not be able to think about anything else  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) A filmmaker has almost the same freedom as a novelist has when he buys himself some paper  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) Perhaps it sounds ridiculous, but the best thing that young filmmakers should do is to get hold of a camera and some film and make a movie of any kind at all  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The screen is a magic medium. It has such power that it can retain interest as it conveys emotions and moods that no other art form can hope to tackle  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) If you can talk brilliantly about a problem, it can create the consoling illusion that it has been mastered  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) What do you take me for? A fourteen karat sucker?  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) You sit at the board and suddenly your heart leaps. Your hand trembles to pick up the piece and move it. But what chess teaches you is that you must sit there calmly and think about whether it’s really a good idea and whether there are other, better ideas  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) You’re an idealist, and I pity you as I would the village idiot  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) I don’t like doing interviews. There is always the problem of being misquoted or, what’s even worse, of being quoted exactly  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) One man writes a novel. One man writes a symphony. It is essential that one man make a film  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) There’s something in the human personality which resents things that are clear, and conversely, something which is attracted to puzzles, enigmas, and allegories  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) Chess teaches you to control the initial excitement you feel when you see something that looks good and it trains you to think objectively when you’re in trouble  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) Be suspicious of people who have, or crave, power. Never, ever go near power. Don’t become friends with anyone who has real power. It’s dangerous  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) I do not always know what I want, but I do know what I don’t want  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The world’s religions, for all their parochialism, did supply a kind of consolation for this great ache... This shattering recognition of our mortality is at the root of far more mental illness than I suspect even psychiatrists are aware  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The test of a work of art is, in the end, our affection for it, not our ability to explain why it is good  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The most terrifying fact about the universe not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) If you really want to communicate something, even if it’s just an emotion or an attitude, let alone an idea, the least effective and least enjoyable way is directly. It only goes in about an inch. But if you can get people to the point where they have to think a moment what it is you’re getting at, and then discover it, the thrill of discovery goes right through the heart  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) I haven’t come across any recent new ideas in film that strike me as being particularly important and that have to do with form. I think that a preoccupation with originality of form is more or less a fruitless thing. A truly original person with a truly original mind will not be able to function in the old form and will simply do something different. Others had much better think of the form as being some sort of classical tradition and try to work within it  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The lasting and ultimately most important reputation of a film is not based on reviews, but on what, if anything, people say about it over the years, and on how much affection for it they have  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) I’ve got a peculiar weakness for criminals and artists. Neither takes life as it is. Any tragic story has to be in conflict with things as they are  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The hardest thing in making a movie is to keep in the front of your consciousness your original response to the material. Because that’s going to be the thing that will make the movie. And the loss of that will break the movie  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) Sanitised violence in movies has been accepted for years. What seems to upset everybody now is the showing of the consequences of violence  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes) The feel of the experience is the important thing, not the ability to verbalize or analyze it  (Stanley Kubrick Quotes)
