More quotes by Agnes Varda
I think I got people confidence because I was not looking at them like insects that I would film.
Agnes Varda
Hands are the tool of the painter, the artist.
Agnes Varda
I'm trying to capture something more fragile than a regular story. I love what people bring me.
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've always been like this - trying to find adventure where it's still in its first élan - the first spring.
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.
Agnes Varda
Some people meet each other again only when I'm there!
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 don't believe in inspiration that arrives like a bolt from the blue ... It seems to me that the more motivated I am by what I film, the more objectively I film.
Agnes Varda
I live in cinema. I feel I've lived here forever.
Agnes Varda
I think we need to have a nest of something which is family.
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'm missing some people, you know, and this is not nostalgia. I miss them. This is melancholy.
Agnes Varda
I had a world. I don't think I had a career. I made films.
Agnes Varda
I had a very good time when I did The Gleaners - even though the people are poor, and I was suffering to see the conditions, and plus they are not such lovely hearts. They are tough to each other, they beat each other, they are rude and they are violent and they drink. They're not sweethearts, you know, but some were so interesting.
Agnes Varda
I'm not nostalgic. My memories are back here in my mind.
Agnes Varda
It's peaceful to think about the family as a group. I totally believe in extended families.
Agnes Varda
The tool of every self-portrait is the mirror. You see yourself in it. Turn it the other way, and you see the world .
Agnes Varda
Gleaning is getting things that are abandoned. I did not abandon my early pictures, my photos, my early films. It's just going through my body of work as something I can pick from.
Agnes Varda
I'm not interested in seeing a film just made by a woman - not unless she is looking for new images.
Agnes Varda
