There is nothing so good as a burial at sea. It is simple, tidy, and not very incriminating.

Suspense is like a woman. The more left to the imagination, the more the excitement.

For me, the cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.

I am to provide the public with beneficial shocks.

If it's a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on.

Someone once told me that every minute a murder occurs, so I don't want to waste your time, I know you want to go back to work.

Luck is everything... My good luck in life was to be a really frightened person. I'm fortunate to be a coward, to have a low threshold of fear, because a hero couldn't make a good suspense film.
