In believing too much in rationality, our contemporaries have lost something.

We understand the concept of equality, that we all want to be equal. But I think this is absolutely not true. I don't think anybody really wants to be equal. Everybody wants to be more equal.

Real artists find answers. The knowledge of the artisan is within the confines of his skills. For example, I know a lot about lenses, about the editing room.

Real knowledge is knowing how to live, why we live, things like that.
