Subject: Quotations

Create your own visual style... let it be unique for yourself and yet identifiable for others.

We're born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for the moment that we're not alone.

A film is never really good unless the camera is an eye in the head of a poet.

In Italy for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love; they had five hundred years of democracy and peace and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

The enemy of art is the absence of limitations.

I want to give the audience a hint of a scene. No more than that. Give them too much and they won't contribute anything themselves. Give them just a suggestion and you get them working with you. That's what gives the theater meaning: when it becomes a social act.

In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed - they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, 500 years of democracy and peace and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

If you want a happy ending, that depends, of course, on where you stop your story.

The trouble is that in your everyday life you don't go deep enough to tap the divine mind within you.

The director is simply the audience. So the terrible burden of the director is to take the place of that yawning vacuum, to be the audience and to select from what happens during the day which movement shall be a disaster and which a gala night. His job is to preside over accidents.

I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.

I do not suppose I shall be remembered for anything. But I don't think about my work in those terms. It is just as vulgar to work for the sake of posterity as to work for the sake of money.

The laws and the stage, both are a form of exhibitionism.

When you are down and out something always turns up - and it is usually the noses of your friends
