Notable quotes

“A story doesn't have to appeal to the heart; it can also appeal to the spine. Sometimes you want your heart to be warmed, and sometimes you want your spine to tingle.”
— Introduction to Lucille Fletcher's radio play The Hitch-Hiker ( Suspense, broadcast September 2, 1942).
“In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed - they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo Da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love and five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!”
— Lines attributed to Welles as the character Harry Lime in the film The Third Man (1949).
“Just breathe at the end of the line or on the punctuation — if you lose that, and lose the iambic pentameter, you'll lose all the sense of what you're saying. And if you do breathe, you'll find that Shakespeare's verse is like a surf board.”
— To actor Keith Baxter (probably in 1964) during production of Chimes at Midnight, from an interview of Baxter by Geoff Andrew at a British Film Institute event (August 3, 2015), as transcribed at Wellesnet
“A long-playing full shot is what always separates the men from the boys. Anybody can make movies with a pair of scissors and a two-inch lens.”
— From conversations with Peter Bogdanovich (1969–1972), as cited in This is Orson Welles (1992), p. 201.
“Hollywood is Hollywood. There’s nothing you can say about it that isn’t true, good or bad. And if you get into it, you have no right to be bitter — you’re the one who sat down, and joined the game.”
— From The Orson Welles Story (1982).
“Don't let Ted Turner deface my movie with his crayons”
— Near death request to filmmaker Henry Jaglom on the Film colorization controversy.
