Quotes from
God:
Garbaldo! Garbaldo! What the hell's goin' on up there?
Captain Garbaldo: There's a stiff wind from the east, sir.
God: I don't care where it's comin' from! Stop it!
Leech: [referring to LSD] Hey, maybe if I took some of that stuff... I wouldn't have to rape anybody no more!
God: [unbuttons her jacket] Right now, I'd rather be doing what he's doing than what I'm doing.

Facts about
Otto Preminger became so fascinated with his son Erik Lee Preminger's description of life as a dropout in New York's Greenwich Village that when a mere writing sample from Doran William Cannon passed his desk, Preminger wanted to shoot the writing sample as opposed to the actual script, because the sample explored the hippie existence and LSD-tripping.
Otto Preminger originally wanted Bob Dylan to score the movie. He invited Dylan and his wife to a screening of a rough cut of the movie in Preminger's Hollywood mansion. After the screening Dylan surprised everybody from his entourage, who thought the film was a disaster, by requesting a second screening but at one condition: he wanted to be left alone with his wife in the house during it. Preminger happily obliged, convinced that Dylan would accept the job. However, Dylan showed no further interest in the movie. He acknowledged later that he and his wife weren't interested at all by the film but they loved the mansion's style so much that they requested this second screening to freely explore it, write down what they liked and take inspiration for their own house.
Towards the end, when George Raft marries Frankie Avalon and Donyale Luna, Raft's wedding-service manual is clearly seen as "The Death of God".
