The mirror is the tool of the one who wants to do a self-portrait. And if you want to make a photo you need a mirror.

You can buy a good pasta but when you cook it yourself it has another feeling.

I'm still fighting. I don't know how much longer, but I'm still fighting a struggle, which is to make cinema alive and not just make another film.

I didn't have a list of things I should do this year, next year, find a good novel, sign two stars and make a deal - because I think cinema should come from cinema. I never adapted anything. Beautiful books are beautiful books, that's it. I don't know why we should transform them.

I waited for each film to become important for me. If I had no ideas for a film, I didn't do a film. So I made not that many films for fifty-four years of working.

I've changed my approach to people and to filming because of the new equipment, which is important.
