We should try to understand our innermost needs. We shouldn't use irony to reduce their power.

My only fantasy about writing was that in my old days, after directing many masterpieces, I would write my memoirs.

I only understand realism.

I believe that people who don't achieve anything in life are isolated and resent those that are successful.

If it's great stuff, the people who consume it are nourished. It's a positive force.

What's better, a poetic intuition or an intellectual work? I think they complement each other.

For someone who writes fiction, in order to activate the imagination and the unconscious, it's essential to be free.
