I'm not a cineaste. I've made so few films. Sometimes it feels each one is the last one or the first one.

When I was 16 I discovered this island called cinema and I thought: 'Oh how wonderful, I'm ready.

It's incredible how much cinema can do. We forget.

I'm not only my films, but I'm pretty much my films.

I don't work with people who ask me questions.

I thank Henry James for the scene in the hotel room, that I stole from Portrait Of A Lady… This particular scene is the most beautiful scene ever written.

Men talk about art, and artists make art, but should artists talk?
