"I am neither a sociologist nor a politician. All I can do is imagine for myself what the future will be like."
Future
"I mean simply to say that I want my characters to suggest the background in themselves, even when it is not visible. I want them to be so powerfully realized that we cannot imagine them apart from their physical and social context even when we see them in empty space."
Space
"Till now I have never shot a scene without taking account of what stands behind the actors because the relationship between people and their surroundings is of prime importance."
People
"You know what I would like to do: make a film with actors standing in empty space so that the spectator would have to imagine the background of the characters."

"Scientific man is already on the moon, and yet we are still living with the moral concepts of Homer."
Living
"When a scene is being shot, it is very difficult to know what one wants it to say, and even if one does know, there is always a difference between what one has in mind and the result on film."

Society

Each day is perfect to accept with indifference all aspects of being."
