The visionary is the only realist.

It's easier to be faithful to a restaurant than it is to a woman.

I don't believe in total freedom for the artist. Left on his own, free to do anything he likes, the artist ends up doing nothing at all. If there's one thing that's dangerous for an artist, it's precisely this question of total freedom, waiting for inspiration and all the rest of it.

Life is a combination of magic and pasta.

The visionary is the only realist.

What's important is the way we say it. Art is all about craftsmanship. Others can interpret craftsmanship as style if they wish. Style is what unites memory or recollection, ideology, sentiment, nostalgia, presentiment, to the way we express all that. It's not what we say but how we say it that matters.

No critic writing about a film could say more than the film itself, although they do their best to make us think the oppposite.
