I pity the French Cinema because it has no money. I pity the American Cinema because it has no ideas.

The silent film, it was cut at the age of thirty.

All you need for a movie is a gun and a girl.

I have no desire to vote for French politicians, and I'm not entitled to vote in Switzerland.

I would never see a good movie for the first time on television.

Americans have no past, so they buy the pasts of others.

I am still associated with a heroic period in French cinema, and my name remains linked to this period.
