John Waters

To me, bad taste is what entertainment is all about. If someone doesn't like my work, then I'm doing something right.

If you go home with somebody, and they don't have books, don't fuck 'em!

I would never want to be a movie star. I would rather be a cult figure.

The only thing I'm afraid of is a happy ending.

I never met a pervert I didn't like.

I'm a dirty artist. I like to make people uncomfortable.

Charm is the ultimate weapon.

If you have a good idea, you don't have to be rich to make a movie.

I like to meet people who have done something wrong.

Filth is my life.

I believe in trash. I believe in bad taste.

I'm not a pervert. I'm an artist.

Life is nothing without a little bad taste.

I like to shock the system.

Bad taste is the best taste.

I never understood people who don't like movies.

I love things that are considered trashy.

I like to make people think. Even if it's about something disgusting.

My movies are like an amusement park ride for perverts.

I'm a cultural terrorist.
