I quit seeing some people who were saying bad things about women; I don't even want to meet them or see them.

Nostalgia doesn't make sense, because it's like bringing the memories back to be a special part of my day or to be part of my week. And I'm inside my memories the same way I'm inside my everyday life.

An old woman I loved very much when I was young - the wife of Jean Villard - she's just reciting poetry all the time, which is beautiful because it means she went back to the world of poetry that she loved when she was young. That's all she does - she almost doesn't recognize her children, but she recites Valéry and Baudelaire. So what? We're the ones who are suffering. She's not.

It's interesting work for me to tell my life, as a possibility for other people to relate it to themselves - not so much to learn about me.

I should say nothing! I'm through with it! I hate to repeat myself all the time.

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

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.
