"My films deal with a stylized, expressionistic world that has a kind of grotesque beauty about it. I try to get away with [stylization] as much as possible until people start laughing at it."

"It's hard to make movies where you put women in peril any more. You can't really stalk women around anymore. It's very difficult. It's sort of unsettling to field a lot of hostile questions about why you keep doing this and why you dislike women so much. You say, 'It's a murder mystery, I'm running out of victims.' It's all right to kill men, but women are out. No one complained when I killed a man in Sisters."

"Hitchcock is the one who distilled the essence of film. He's like Webster. It's all there. I've used a lot of his grammar."

"I've never been accepted as that conventional artist. Whatever you say about David Lynch or Martin Scorsese, they are considered major film artists and nobody can argue with that. I've never had that. I've had people say it about me, and I've had people say that I'm a complete hack and you know, derivative and all those catchphrases that people use for me. So I've always been controversial. People hate me or love me."

- Brian De Palma

"When you have friends, you start a band. When you don't, you write."

- Marilyn Manson

“In order to understand the world, one has to turn away from it on occasion”
- Albert Camus

"Who needs to know how to spell when you have google?"

"Your facts are opinionated"

"intellect doesn't matter because i will BEAT THEIR ASSES
and then they'll have nothing intelligent to say"

"blood spatter analysts do not exist"

1"africa is only for animals, right? there's no way there are humans living in africa, it's where they keep the dangerous animals"
2"and what about egypt?"
1"that's an entirely different city, i'm not talking about egypt"

1"I didnt know vikings were swedish"
2"Vikings are scandinavian"
3"Is that some swedish word for sexy?"

"when under water, the easiest way to kill a shark is to grab its fin- the reason you do this is because it will eventually tire after chasing its own tail. after that, you can kill it"

Russell Brand on Bob Geldof:

If he's been dining out on "I Don't Like Mondays" for 30 years, it's no wonder he's such an expert on famine...

Class.

When I first met Luc Besson he was first assistant on a little comedy that was not very well done [1981’s Les Bidasses Aux Grandes Manoeuvres]. But at the same time I met Luc so it was good. We have a saying in France that goes, “When you fall down, maybe you can still find something on the floor.”

Just before we start filming I always like to yell, “After the take, we make love!”

Thanks for the inspiration.

“Man can will nothing unless he has first understood that he must count on no one but himself; that he is alone, abandoned on earth in the midst of his infinite responsibilities, without help, with no other aim than the one he sets himself, with no other destiny than the one he forges for himself on this earth.”
- Jean-Paul Sartre

"I've often been accused by critics of being myself on-screen. But being oneself is more difficult than you'd suppose."

"I tell you, in films, one doesn't really meet the audience. You don't get the impact or spirit of your audience, whereas when you are out in the public, you do."

"My intention in taking LSD was to make myself happy. A man would be a fool to take something that didn't make him happy. I took it with a group of men, one of whom was Aldous Huxley. We deceived ourselves by calling it therapy, but we were truly interested in how this chemical could help humanity. I found it a very enlightening experience, but it's like alcohol in one respect: a shot of brandy can save your life, but a bottle of brandy can kill you."

"I improve on misquotation."

- Cary Grant
