I make film to make time pass.

The truth is that there is no terror untempered by some great moral idea.

I don't think you should feel about a film. You should feel about a woman, not a movie. You can't kiss a movie.

Photography is truth. The cinema is truth twenty-four times per second.

People come to Cannes just to advertise their films, not with a particular message. But the advantage is that if you go to the festival, you get so much press coverage in three days that it advertises...

You don't make a movie, the movie makes you.

I don't have a visa for the U.S., and I don't want to apply for one. And I don't want to fly for that long.

One of the most striking signs of the decay of art is when we see its separate forms jumbled together.

Art attracts us only by what it reveals of our most secret self.

I had the feeling that Sarajevo was the perfect place to shoot the film I wanted to shoot. It is the perfect illustration of purgatory.
