An original artist is unable to copy. So he has only to copy... - Jean Cocteau

"I believe in luck: how else can you explain the success of those you dislike?"

"The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying."

"Film will only became an art when its materials are as inexpensive as pencil and paper."

"I have lost my seven best friends, which is to say God has had mercy on me seven times without realizing it. He lent a friendship, took it from me, sent me another."

"Emotion resulting from a work of art is only of value when it is not obtained by sentimental blackmail."
