I cannot say something different to one person and then another.

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.

I didn't see films when I was young. I was stupid and naïve. Maybe I wouldn't have made films if I had seen lots of others; maybe it would have stopped me. I started totally free and crazy and innocent. Now I've seen many films, and many beautiful films. And I try to keep a certain level of quality of my films. I don't do commercials, I don't do films pre-prepared by other people, I don't do star system. So I do my own little thing.

I think I did fifteen long features and fifteen documentaries, or something like this, which is very little when you think of people making a film every year. Some people have done fifty or sixty films.

It's a way of living, sharing things with people who work with me, and they seem to enjoy it.

This is all you need in life: a computer, a camera, and a cat.

I'd been educated stupidly, I knew nothing about nothing, that's part of being shy.
