Alfred Hitchcock Hour

Famous quotes containing the words alfred, hitchcock and/or hour:

    Not out of those, on whom systems of education have exhausted their culture, comes the helpful giant to destroy the old or to build the new, but out of unhandselled savage nature, out of terrible Druids and Berserkirs, come at last Alfred and Shakespeare.

    Drama is life with the dull bits cut out.
    —Alfred Hitchcock (1899–1980)

    I don’t know Who—or what—put the question, I don’t know when it was put. I don’t even remember answering. But at some moment I did answer Yes to Someone—or Something—and from that hour I was certain that existence is meaningful and that, therefore, my life, in self-surrender, had a goal.
    Dag Hammarskjöld (1905–1961)
