Fairy tales have a hidden power, and their appeal never ends. They're the best way to get messages across.

I'm at peace with myself. My film just may please audiences. At any rate, it's already a great prize to be part of just 16 films among all of the world cinema out there. I'm tranquil and satisfied.

I'd never make a film that I am not passionate about. My whole life, I've only made the films I wanted to make, even when I had limited means.

If I need something, I just draw it, have a few friends make it move, and it exists. I enjoy this strange power. I try to be a good sorcerer, though.

Digital is expensive, from the computers to the professional software to the technicians, but digital helps me to create more beautiful images in less time.

The film industry needs to find a way to bring audiences to movie theaters. It's more of a technical trick than a revolution.

Fairy tales are my natural language. I feel at ease telling fairy tales like a fish feels in water. I am totally free.

I like to make people happy, and with fairy tales, I can say anything I want to, but in an agreeable way.

I've never made films for children. That's why children like my films. Nobody wants to be treated as a baby.

No matter what the level of funding or success may be, there's always money missing, and you still want to have a gorgeous image, an endless cast and a flawless rendering.

Jingle bells, they ring in hell, never to be merry, they'll burn, they'll burn, please my dear be weary

Kicks to the legs, they're not very cool. They're brutal.

I don't think that anyone should doubt Israel's determination to defend itself against terror and destruction.

Sometimes the most evolved souls take the most challenging paths

If you think this is weird, just look at yourselves.

I'm bugged because I can't believe I can't speak every language there is. But I feel I can when I sit and am with somebody, and I can dance for them. Because dance is dialogue without language.

Believe it or not, but I was a camp councilor for three years. I love kids.

General Taylor is, I have no doubt, a well-meaning old man. He is, however, uneducated, exceedingly ignorant of public affairs, and I should judge, of very ordinary capacity.

The downside of playing dumb is that you sound dumb.

The arrogance of men never ceases to amaze me. You all think everything has to do with you, and every woman has to desire you.
