Woody Allen———————
Marriage? That’s for life! It’s like cement!What’s New, Pussycat? (1965)
I think crime pays. The hours are good, you meet a lot of interesting people, you travel a lot.Take the Money and Run (1969)
.What a world. It could be so wonderful if it wasn’t for certain people.Radio Days (1987)I can’t listen to that much Wagner. I start getting the urge to conquer Poland.Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993)We’re worth a lot of dough. Whatever you see is antiques. This thing here. This is from — I don’t remember exactly. I think it’s the Renaissance or the Magna Carta or something. But that’s where it’s from.Small Time Crooks (2001)I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy myself, but I didn’t.The Curse of the Jade Scorpion (2001)Chris: The man who said “I’d rather be lucky than good” saw deeply into life. People are afraid to face how great a part of life is dependent on luck. It’s scary to think so much is out of one’s control. There are moments in a match when the ball hits the top of the net and for a split second it can either go forward or fall back. With a little luck it goes forward and you win. Or maybe it doesn’t and you lose.Match Point (2005)As a filmmaker, I’m not interested in 9/11 [...] it’s too small, history overwhelms it. The history of the world is like: He kills me, I kill him, only with different cosmetics and different castings. So in 2001, some fanatics killed some Americans, and now some Americans are killing some Iraqis. And in my childhood, some Nazis killed Jews. And now, some Jewish people and some Palestinians are killing each other. Political questions, if you go back thousands of years, are ephemeral, not important. History is the same thing over and over again.Interview in Der Spiegel, 2005-06-20 (as quoted by the New York Post) [1]No. I have no apprehension whatsoever. I’ve been through this so many times. And I found that one way or the other, your life doesn’t change at all. Which is sad, in a way. Because the people love your film… nothing great happens. And people hate your film… nothing terrible happens. Many years ago, I would… I would… a film of mine would open, and it would get great reviews, and I would go down and look at the movie theater. There’d be a line around the block. And when a film is reviled, you open a film and people say “Oh, it’s the stupidest thing, it’s the worst movie.” You think: oh, nobody’s going to ever speak to you again. But, it doesn’t happen. Nobody cares. You know, they read it and they say “Oh, they hated your film.” You care, at the time. But they don’t. Nobody else cares. They’re not interested. They’ve got their own lives, and their own problems, and their own shadows on their lungs, and their x-rays. And, you know, they’ve got their own stuff they’re dealing with…. So, I’m just never nervous about it.September 2007 interview, promoting Cassandra’s Dreams
[edit] Bananas (1971)I remember when I was a little boy, I once stole a pornographic book that was printed in Braille. I used to rub the dirty parts.Prosecutor: Tell the court why you think he is a traitor to this country.Miss America: I think Mr. Mellish is a traitor to this country because his views are different from the views of the president and others of his kind. Differences of opinion should be tolerated, but not when they’re too different. Then he becomes a subversive mother.
[edit] Getting Even (1971)I don’t believe in an afterlife, although I am bringing a change of underwear.“Conversations with Helmholtz”
[edit] My PhilosophyCan we actually “know” the universe? My God, it’s hard enough finding your way around in Chinatown.It is impossible to experience one’s own death objectively and still carry a tune.Eternal nothingness is O.K. if you’re dressed for it.Not only is there no God, but try getting a plumber on weekends.
[edit] Sleeper (1973)My brain: it’s my second favorite organ.Oh, he was probably a member of the National Rifle Association. It was a group that helped criminals get guns so they could shoot citizens. It was a public service.I’m not really the heroic type. I was beat up by Quakers.Sex and death are two things that come but once in my lifetime, but at least after death you’re not nauseous.[After discovering that they are trying to clone "the leader" from his only nose] Now is the time to strike. The Leader is at great handicap, he has no head or body!
[edit] Love and Death (1975)To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But, then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love, to be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy, therefore, to be unhappy one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness — I hope you’re getting this down.Human beings are divided into mind and body. The mind embraces all the nobler aspirations, like poetry and philosophy, but the body has all the fun.The important thing, I think, is not to be bitter… if it turns about that there is a God, I don’t think that he is evil. I think that the worst thing you could say is that he is, basically, an under-achiever.After all, there are worse things in life than death. If you’ve ever spent an evening with an insurance salesman, you know what I’m talking about.The key is, to not think of death as an end, but as more of a very effective way to cut down on your expenses.Regarding love… what can you say? It’s not the quantity of your sexual relations that counts. It’s the quality. On the other hand if the quantity drops below once every eight months, I would definitely look into it.Where did you go to finishing school? On a pirate ship?Sonja: “Violence is justified in the service of mankind!”Boris: Who said that?Sonja: Attila the Hun!Sonja: Sex without love is an empty experience!Boris: Yes, but as empty experiences go, it’s one of the best!Countess: You are a great lover!Boris: I practice a lot when I’m alone.Sonja: Boris, Let me show you how absurd your position is. Let’s say there is no God, and each man is free to do exactly as he chooses.What prevents you from murdering somebody?Boris: Murder’s immoral.Sonja: Immorality is subjective.Boris: Yes, but subjectivity is objective.Sonja: Not in a rational scheme of perception.Boris: Perception is irrational. It implies imminence.Sonja: But judgment of any system of phenomena exists in any rational, metaphysical or epistemological contradiction to an abstracted empirical concept such as being, or to be, or to occur in the thing itself, or of the thing itself.Boris: Yeah, I’ve said that many times.Him: Come to my quarters tomorrow at three.Sonja: I can’t.Him: Please!Sonja: It’s immoral. What time?Him: Who is to say what is moral?Sonja: Morality is subjective.Him: Subjectivity is objective.Sonja: Moral notions imply attributes to substances which exist only in relational duality.Him: Not as an essential extension of ontological existence.Sonja: Can we not talk about sex so much?Sgt: Next week, we leave for the front. The object will be to kill as many Frenchmen as possible. Naturally, they are going to try and kill as many Russians as possible. If we kill more Frenchmen, we win. If they kill more Russians, they win.Boris: What do we win?Boris: Nothingness. Non-existence. Black emptiness.Sonja: What did you say?Boris: Oh, I was just planning my future.Boris: (a) Socrates is a man.(b) All men are mortal.(c) All men are Socrates. That means all men are homosexuals. I’m not a homosexual. Once, some Cossacks whistled at me. I happen to have the kind of body that excites both persuasions.Boris: Then there is a God. Incredible. Moses was right. [a ray of light shines over Boris] He that abideth in truth will have frankincense and myrrh smeared on his gums in abundance, and he shall dwell in the house of the Lord for six months with an option to buy. But the wicked man shall have all kinds of problems. His tongue shall cleave to the roof of his upper palate. And he shall speak like a woman, if you watch him closely. And he shall… The wicked man shall be delivered into the hands of his enemy, whether they can pay the delivery charge or not. And… [ray of light turns off] Wait, I have more about the wicked man. [turns on again] I shall walk through the valley of the shadow of death… In fact, now that I think of it, I shall run through the valley of the shadow of death, cos’ you get out of the valley quicker that way. And he that hath clean hands and a pure heart is OK in my book. But he that fools around with barnyard animals has got to be watched.Boris: I was walking through the woods, thinking about Christ. If he was a carpenter, I wondered what he charged for bookshelves.Boris: If it turns out that there IS a God, I don’t think that he’s evil. I think that the worst you can say about him is that basically he’s an underachiever.Sonja: I do believe that this is truly the best of all possible worlds.Boris: Well, it’s certainly the most expensive.
[edit] Without Feathers (1975)As the poet said, “Only God can make a tree”—probably because it’s so hard to figure out how to get the bark on.“The Early Essays”Money is better than poverty, if only for financial reasons.“The Early Essays”The chief problem about death, incidentally, is the fear that there may be no afterlife — a depressing thought, particularly for those who have bothered to shave. Also, there is the fear that there is an afterlife but no one will know where it’s being held.“The Early Essays”What a wonderful thing, to be conscious! I wonder what the people in New Jersey do.“No Kaddish for Weinstein”Thought: Why does man kill? He kills for food. And not only food: frequently there must be a beverage.“Selections from the Allen Notebooks”What if everything is an illusion and nothing exists? In that case, I definitely overpaid for my carpet.“Selections from the Allen Notebooks”If only God would give me some clear sign! Like making a large deposit in my name in a Swiss bank.“Selections from the Allen Notebooks”It’s not that I’m afraid to die, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.The lion and the calf shall lie down together but the calf won’t get much sleep.“Scrolls”What if nothing exists and we’re all in somebody’s dream? Or what’s worse, what if only that fat guy in the third row exists?from the play “God”
[edit] Annie Hall (1977)Don’t knock masturbation — it’s sex with someone I love.Life is divided into the horrible and the miserable.There’s an old joke… two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of ‘em says, “Boy, the food at this place is really terrible.” The other one says, “Yeah, I know; and such small portions.” Well, that’s essentially how I feel about life — full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness — and it’s all over much too quickly.The… the other important joke, for me, is one that’s usually attributed to Groucho Marx; but, I think it appears originally in Freud’s “Wit and Its Relation to the Unconscious”, and it goes like this — I’m paraphrasing — um, “I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member.” That’s the key joke of my adult life, in terms of my relationships with women.I thought of that old joke: This guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, ‘Doc, my brother’s crazy, he thinks he’s a chicken.’ And the doctor says, ‘Well why don’t you turn him in?’ and the guy says, ‘I would, but I need the eggs.’ Well, I guess that’s pretty much now how I feel about relationships. They’re totally irrational and crazy and absurd, but I guess we keep going through it because most of us need the eggs.
[edit] Manhattan (1979)This is so antiseptic. It’s empty. Why do you think this is funny? You’re going by audience reaction? This is an audience that’s raised on television, their standards have been systematically lowered over the years. These guys sit in front of their sets and the gamma rays eat the white cells of their brains out!Talent is luck. The important thing in life is courage.I think that people should mate for life, like pigeons or Catholics.I can’t express anger. That’s my problem. I internalize everything. I just grow a tumor instead.She’s 17. I’m 42 and she’s 17. I’m older than her father, can you believe that? I’m dating a girl, wherein, I can beat up her father.You know a lot of geniuses, y’know. You should meet some stupid people once in a while, y’know, you could learn something.I had a mad impulse to throw you down on the lunar surface and commit interstellar perversion.What are you telling me, that you’re, you’re, you’re gonna leave Emily, is this true? And, and run away with the, the, the winner of the Zelda Fitzgerald emotional maturity award?It’s just gossip, you know. Gossip is the new pornography.
[edit] Side Effects (1980)It is impossible to travel faster than light, and certainly not desirable, as one’s hat keeps blowing off.“The UFO Menace”Interestingly, according to modern astronomers, space is finite. This is a very comforting thought — particularly for people who can never remember where they have left things.“The UFO Menace”More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.“My Speech to the Graduates”
[edit] My ApologyWoody Allen as Socrates…
Of all the famous men who ever lived, the one I would most like to have been was Socrates. Not just because he was a great thinker, because I have been known to have some reasonably profound insights myself, although mine invariably revolve around a Swedish airline stewardess and some handcuffs.Death is a state of non-being. That which is not, does not exist. Therefore death does not exist. Only truth exists. Truth and beauty. Each is interchangeable, but are aspects of themselves. Er, what specifically did they say they had in mind for me?Hey listen — I’ve proved a lot of things. That’s how I pay my rent. Theories and little observations. A puckish remark now and then. Occasional maxims. It beats picking olives, but let’s not get carried away.Agathon: But all that talk about death being the same as sleep.Socrates: Yes, the difference is that when you’re dead and somebody yells, “Everybody up, it’s morning,” it’s very hard to find your slippers.
[edit] Crimes and Misdemeanors (1989)My love life is terrible. The last time I was inside a woman was when I visited the Statue of Liberty.Where I grew up… in Brooklyn, nobody committed suicide… you know, everyone was too unhappy.
[edit] Manhattan Murder Mystery (1993)Taste my tuna casserole — tell me if I put in too much hot fudge.What has gotten into you lately? Save a little craziness for menopause!I bought her this handkerchief… and I didn’t even know her size.
[edit] Zelig (1983)I worked with Freud in Vienna. We broke over the concept of penis envy. He thought it should be limited to women.
[edit] Don’t Drink the Water (1994)[about his daughter] I’d rather she grew up here than grew up as an orphan,you know I can tolerate anybody’s orphans but my own.
…years of insanity have made this guy crazy!
[edit] Deconstructing Harry (1997)Between the Pope and air conditioning, I’d choose air conditioning.Do you think the President wants to fuck everyone he sees at least once?… Well, bad example.No, I don’t think you’re paranoid. I think you’re the opposite of paranoid. I think you walk around with the sick delusion that people like you.Tradition is the illusion of permanence.[On being called a self-hating Jew] Hey, I may hate myself, but its not because I’m Jewish.
[edit] Standup Comic (1999)A CD compilation of Allen comedy routines from 1964-1968
A lot of things have happened in my private life recently that I thought we could review tonight.I feel sex is a beautiful thing between two people. Between five, it’s fantastic.A fast word about oral contraception. I was involved in an extremely good example of oral contraception two weeks ago. I asked a girl to go to bed with me, she said “no.”Basically my wife was immature. I’d be at home in the bath and she’d come in and sink my boats.I was in analysis. I was suicidal. As a matter of fact, I would have killed myself, but I was in analysis with a strict Freudian and if you kill yourself they make you pay for the sessions you miss.I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy sitting next to me.I tended to place my wife under a pedestal.I’m not a drinker — my body will not tolerate spirits. I had two Martinis on New Year’s Eve and I tried to hijack an elevator and fly it to Cuba.When I was kidnapped, my parents snapped into action. They rented out my room.
[edit] Mere Anarchy (2007)How could I not have known that there are little things the size of “Planck length” in the universe, which are a millionth of a billionth of a billionth of a centimeter? Imagine if you dropped one in a dark theater how hard it would be to find.And how does gravity work? And if it were to cease suddenly, would certain restaurants still require a jacket?With that, he scribbled in an additional ninety thousand dollars on the estimate, which had waxed to the girth of the Talmud while rivaling it in possible interpretations.I have also reviewed my own financial obligations, which have puffed up recently like a hammered thumb.She quarreled with the nanny and accused her of brushing Misha’s teeth sideways rather than up and down.As we know, for centuries Rome regarded the Open Hot Turkey Sandwich as the height of licentiousness.I was supremely confident my flair for atmosphere and characterization would sparkle alongside the numbing mulch ground out by studio hacks. Certainly the space atop my mantel might be better festooned by a gold statuette than by the plastic dipping bird that now bobbed there ad infinitum.Bidnick gorges himself on Viagra, but the dosage makes him hallucinate and causes him to imagine he is Pliny the Elder.To a man standing on the shore, time passes quicker than to a man on a boat — especially if the man on the boat is with his wife.
