Quotes by Theo van Gogh  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“Ik ben een pathologische eerlijkheidsmaniak. Ik kan helemaal niet slijmen. Ik heb een heel groot ego, dat hebben alle goede regisseurs. Veel mensen vinden mij een geflipte Wassenaarse bal. Ik heb ook een grote bek, zelfs mijn vrienden haten me soms oprecht. Maar het recht op vrije meningsuiting ligt verankerd in de grondwet. Ik wil niet zeggen dat ik altijd gelijk heb, maar ik mag zeggen wat ik wil.”
Theo van Gogh
