"The good moral work of art should have all the qualities that a good amoral work of art should have, such as formal unity, balance, contrast, and a sensitivity to the material out of which it is made."
Art
"In any art movement, the art has to move into a new phase - a filmmaker has a desire to make a film that is not like a previous film."
Art
"I like black and white films. I don't exactly know why - probably because there is a stylization which is removed from actual life, unlike a color film."
Life
"The number of strokes to the inch controls the pitch of the note: the more, the higher the pitch; the fewer, the lower the pitch, the size of the stroke controls the loudness... the tone quality is the most difficult element to control, it is made by the shape of the strokes."
Quality
"So people will come along and do new things and sometimes return to the spirit of an earlier age."
Age
"I don't know whether it ever comes back to the same thing; it does return to the spirit of a previous period in some way, but it's different, it's new."
Spirit
"The process of art evolving is always one which has fascinated me."
Art
