More quotes by Agnes Varda
To change history is very slow. The first two times I came to the States - black people didn't have the right to vote.
Agnes Varda
I know people could tell incredible stories. People have been in concentration camps, or women being raped, or a man going to war and not recovering from it. People have been robbed and beaten. A lot of people have had strong events in their life, which I didn't.
Agnes Varda
It's a way of living, cinema. And I see my family, I do this and that, I travel. It's a long process to let it happen.
Agnes Varda
It's nice to think that we have in ourselves the energy. It's somewhere, but it's sleeping sometimes. I try to wake it up when I need it.
Agnes Varda
In my films I always wanted to make people see deeply. I don't want to show things, but to give people the desire to see.
Agnes Varda
I had a world. I don't think I had a career. I made films.
Agnes Varda
When I started I did not know I wanted to be a filmmaker. I started - I made a film. Then when I finished I said, Oh my god it's so beautiful - I should be a filmmaker!
Agnes Varda
It's a way of living, sharing things with people who work with me, and they seem to enjoy it.
Agnes Varda
I didn't have a list of things I should do this year, next year, find a good novel, sign two stars and make a deal - because I think cinema should come from cinema. I never adapted anything. Beautiful books are beautiful books, that's it. I don't know why we should transform them.
Agnes Varda
I was nineteen and I put a bowl on and I said, Cut around! Because it was not the fashion at the time when I did that hairdo - and I kept it all my life!
Agnes Varda
To share a lot of ideas - not ideas - emotions, a way of looking at people, a way of looking at life. If it can be shared, it means there is a common denominator.
Agnes Varda
Sometimes I want to work with a DP, sometimes I want to work myself. I go to 35mm, 16mm, it's all the same, but it depends on what you want to tell and what are the tools you need.
Agnes Varda
Sometimes I feel sad, but this is not nostalgia, because I don't want time to come back.
Agnes Varda
I don't watch my own films. There is little time I'd rather see another film.
Agnes Varda
[Pablo] Picasso really changed my life. It's strange to say so, but I started to see some Picasso paintings very early. I was very young, and he was not so much known.
Agnes Varda
The first exhibition [Publo Picasso] was organized by the communist party - because of his position during the war and all that.
Agnes Varda
I've changed my approach to people and to filming because of the new equipment, which is important.
Agnes Varda
People like my films. They understand me through my films it's like a connection that has been established between all my work and myself and the audience and the viewer.
Agnes Varda
I thought, If I'm an ancestor and grandmother when I'm twenty-five, I should go peacefully to the real time when I'm an ancestor and a grandmother.
Agnes Varda
I've seen many films, and many beautiful films. And I try to keep a certain level of quality of my films. I don't do commercials, I don't do films pre-prepared by other people, I don't do star system. So I do my own little thing.
