Alfred Hitchcock Quotes #1 - On love scenes

"All love scenes started on the set are continued in the dressing room."

Alfred Hitchcock Quotes #2 - Psycho is scary, but not quite scary enough for some men

"It has been rumored that "Psycho" is so terrifying that it will scare some people speechless. Some of my men hopefully sent their wives to a screening. The women emerged badly shaken but still vigorously vocal."

Alfred Hitchcock Quotes #3 - On fear

"Fear isn't so difficult to understand. After all, weren't we all frightened as children? Nothing has changed since Little Red Riding Hood faced the big bad wolf . What frightens us today is exactly the same sort of thing that frightened us yesterday. It's just a different wolf. This fright complex is rooted in every individual."

Alfred Hitchcock Quotes #4 - On his fear of eggs. Yes, I said Alfred Hitchcock had a fear of EGGS!

"I'm frightened of eggs, worse than frightened, they revolt me. That white round thing without any holes . . . have you ever seen anything more revolting than an egg yolk breaking and spilling its yellow liquid? Blood is jolly, red. But egg yolk is yellow, revolting. I've never tasted it."

Alfred Hitchcock Quotes #5 - On North by Northwest

"Our original title, you know, was 'The Man in Lincoln's Nose.' Couldn't use it, though. They also wouldn't let us shoot people on Mount Rushmore. Can't deface a national monument. And it's a pity, too, because I had a wonderful shot in mind of Cary Grant hiding in Lincon's nose and having a sneezing fit."

Alfred Hitchcock Quotes #6 - What he says you need in order to make a great movie
