Book cover for The Dream of a Ridiculous Man

Stanley Kubrick
“The lasting and ultimately most important reputation of a film is not based on reviews, but on what, if anything, people say about it over the years, and on how much affection for it they have.”
Stanley Kubrick, Stanley Kubrick: Interviews

“Observation is a dying art.”

Stanley Kubrick
“Think [Schindler's List] was about the Holocaust?... That was about success, wasn’t it? The Holocaust is about six million people who get killed. ‘'Schindler’s List’' is about 600 who don’t. Anything else?”
Stanley Kubrick

Seneca
“It is not that we have a short space of time, but that we waste much of it. Life is long enough, and it has been given in sufficiently generous measure to allow the accomplishment of the very greatest things if the whole of it is well invested. But when it is squandered in luxury and carelessness, when it is devoted to no good end, forced at last by the ultimate necessity we perceive that it has passed away before we were aware that it was passing.”
Seneca

“Joe Louis once said, “Every fighter has a plan until they get hit.”
