More From Grace Kelly

Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty. violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. it may increase hate. it is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. this is the ultimate weakness of violence: it multiplies evil and violence in the universe. it doesn’t solve any problems.
Hate Liars Lying
If i'm ever working on a set and anyone talks about a master shot, i say there is no master shot. before i even went to film school, i learned about movies by being in a british feature film, where everything was shot master shot, mid-shot, close-up. but i reject the idea of a master shot. you don't shoot everything mechanically; you find imaginative ways that serve the action.

I still don't feel i know hitchcock at all. i find that the more one looks, the more elusive he becomes. but my admiration for hitchcock the filmmaker remains undiminished. he is a giant of the cinema and the darkness in him informs his cinematic language. you can't separate one from the other.
Darkness Giants Cinema
I'm concerned about a better world. i'm concerned about justice; i'm concerned about brotherhood; i'm concerned about truth. and when one is concerned about that, he can never advocate violence. for through violence you may murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder. through violence you may murder a liar, but you can't establish truth. through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate through violence. darkness cannot put out darkness; only light can do that.
Motivational Hate Liars
I wouldn't use the word 'scared' for my role as hitchcock, but it was my most insecure. taking on such a formidable, giant personality such as hitchcock; he was one of the great geniuses of world cinema. sheer genius.
Insecure Personality Giants
The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and i try to render this concept in my films. literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn't.

Similar Quotes
Another thing about creation is that every day it is like it gave birth, and it's always kind of an innocent and refreshing. so it's always virginal to me, and it's always a surprise. ... each piece seems to have a life of its own. every little piece or every big piece that i make becomes a very living thing to me, very living. i could make a million pieces; the next piece gives me a whole new thing. it is a new center. life is total at that particular time. and that's why it's right. that reaffirms my life.

Bare your struggles very close to your heart and have them be a part of you that you’re proud of instead of something that you’re ashamed of.
Struggle Heart Proud
To live lightheartedly but not recklessly; to be gay without being boisterous; to be courageous without being bold; to show trust and cheerful resignation without fatalism - this is the art of living.
Life Art Gay
To be enthusiastic about doing much with human nature is a foolish business indeed; and, throwing himself into his work as he was doing, and expecting so much from it, would not the tide ebb as strongly as it was flowing? it is a rash game this setting our hearts on any future beyond what we have our own selves control over. things do not walk as we settle with ourselves they ought to walk, and to hope is almost the correlative of to be disappointed.
