Quote by Dan Auiler

“Readers of the book, paradoxically, will have a different kind of surprise in store for them: What many "Vertigo" aficionados will find perplexing are the systematic, businesslike, matter of fact circumstances under which this odd, obsessional, very un-matter-of-fact film was created.”

“François Truffault: Mr. Hitchcock, you were born in London on August 13, 1899. The only thing I know about your childhood is the incident at the police station. Is that story true? Alfred Hitchcock: Yes, it is. I must have been about four or five years old. My father sent me to the police station with a note. The chief of police read it and locked me in a cell for five to ten minutes, saying, "This is what we do to naughty boys.”

“Actors read lines and change their facial expressions. Even then they usually need a director to tell them how to do it. It could be argued that actors are not creators or are at best secondary creators. Actors create something from something, usually a prewritten script. Whereas sculptors will create something from the raw material of the earth only using their hands and no other tools. In this regard sculptors are higher creators than painters, and painters are higher creators than musicians or writers who use symbols and tools to create. Actors however are the lowest of all creators. Perhaps that helps to explain why Hitchcock said, “Actors should be treated as cattle.”

“Here is the thing about God. He is so big and so perfect that we can't really understand Him. We can't possess Him, or apprehend Him. Moses learned this when he climbed up Mount Sinai and saw that the radiance of God's face would burn him up should he gaze upon it directly. But God so wants to be in relationship with us that He makes himself small, smaller than He really is, smaller and more humble than his infinite, perfect self, so that we might be able to get to Him, a little bit.”

“Doğu musikisi' adlı kavrama dâhil olmadan önce Türk musikisinin kendisine özgü bir nazariyesi var mıydı? Eğer bir nazariyesi varsa, nasıl bir şekildeydi? Bunu bilmiyoruz. Arap İslâm siyasetinin “himmeti” sayesinde yok edilmiş birçok millî eserlerimizle birlikte musikimiz de kaybolmaya yüz tutmuştur. Büyük bir yoldan geçen ulu kervanın izi kalmaz mı? İşte örnek olarak verdiğimiz bu söz gibi Arap istilasından önceki Türk musikimizin sadece izleri kalmıştır. Bu olanları görmezden gelmek elbette ki iyi bir sonuç getirmez.”
