Welles

Famous quotes containing the word welles:

    In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed—they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!
    —Orson Welles (1915–84)

    Perhaps a man like you can’t realize what it is to have a conscience and no memory at all. Do you imagine it’s pleasant to be ashamed of something you can’t even remember?
    —Orson Welles (1915–1985)

    Personally, I don’t like a girlfriend to have a husband. If she’ll fool her husband, I figure she’ll fool me.
    —Orson Welles (1915–1985)
