I've always felt that I've made films, period. I wanted to leave the "ghetto." And here I am, I'm out.

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.

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.

My producers give me total freedom. No one asks me for anything; they just tell me to make a good film, and that's what I do.

You can create the best out of your life by understanding the wealth of time and converting that time into the life that you were created to live.

I shall challenge all authority. Question all who claim dominion over me. I am not a thoughtless being but a man with his own beliefs.

You know, sometimes the right thing isn’t the thing you think is right. It’s the wrong thing you’re afraid to think of.

I asked my instructor how I could cut ten strokes off my score. He told me to quit on hole 17!

I have great respect for the semicolon it is a mighty handy little fellow.

The Dark Side of the Moon is a fine album with a textural and conceptual richness that not only invites, but demands involvement. There is a certain grandeur.

Read The Golden Key several times. Do exactly what it says, and if you are persistent enough you will overcome any difficulty.

You've got to play for whoever you play for.

Jump for joy as we accomplish the dreams we adore.

O timid one, awaken, exert yourself, draw back the curtains your training and background have hung over the windows of your soul.
