Quotes by Quentin Tarantino

I look at 'Death Proof' and realize I had too much time.

I'm a big collector of vinyl - I have a record room in my house - and I've always had a huge soundtrack album collection. So what I do, as I'm writing a movie, is go through all those songs, trying to find good songs for fights, or good pieces of music to layer into the film.

Something stopped me in school a little bit. Anything that I'm not interested in, I can't even feign interest.

Violence is one of the most fun things to watch.

I'm a historian in my own mind.

When I'm writing something, I try not to get analytical about it as I'm doing it, as I'm writing it.

To be a novelist, all I need is a pen and a piece of paper.

I cannot get myself interested in video games. I've been given video game players and they just sit there connected to my TVs gathering dust until eventually I unplug them so I can put in another special-region DVD player.

Reservoir Dogs is a small film, and part of its charm was that it was a small film. I'd probably make it for $3 million now so I'd have more breathing room.

CGI has fully ruined car crashes. Because how can you be impressed with them now? When you watch them in the '70s, it was real cars, real metal, real blasts. They're really doing it and risking their lives. But I knew CGI was gonna start taking over.
