I live making comics. Comics is an industrial art but less suffering, because comics are for young people who are more adventurous. I do that. I live off comics, and then I write books, but when you want movies, you cannot make movies without money.
Alejandro JodorowskyEvery one of us is a perfect human being, deformed by the family, the society and the culture.
Alejandro JodorowskyI want to liberate my imagination and my mind with every kind of movie. That is what I wanted to do all my life.
Alejandro JodorowskyI never know if my picture is a good picture or a bad picture, because I'm not making pictures thinking of the public, I'm making pictures to realize myself.
Alejandro JodorowskyMaybe if literature was prohibited the same way as cocaine, people out of pure curiosity would try to get a couple of lines
Alejandro JodorowskyI don't see myself as a movie maker only. When I can do a picture, I do. But I don't work like a business, in pictures. I am not obliged to make one picture after the other in order to live. I write books, I write for comic books, I give lectures... I live. And when the opportunity comes to do a picture, I do a picture.
