I owe my success to the fact that I never had a clock in my workroom.

All my pictures are built around the idea of getting in trouble and so giving me the chance to be desperately serious in my attempt to appear as a normal little gentleman.

The saddest thing I can imagine is to get used to luxury.

Simplicity is a difficult thing to achieve.

Whiskey! Never tasted such beastly stuff in my life! In a civilized country they drink wine

One murder makes a villain, millions a hero. Numbers sanctify.
