More quotes by Agnes Varda
I'm missing some people, you know, and this is not nostalgia. I miss them. This is melancholy.
Agnes Varda
I think I got people confidence because I was not looking at them like insects that I would film.
Agnes Varda
I'm trying to capture something more fragile than a regular story. I love what people bring me.

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 try to do nothing. I drink rosemary when I have a lot of work to do. People take coffee, they take speed, whatever. I take rosemary.

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

Agnes Varda
I'm still fighting. I don't know how much longer, but I'm still fighting a struggle, which is to make cinema alive and not just make another film.
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
If you know nothing, it could be like an enemy in a way. I think that's the way I felt when I was young.
Agnes Varda
I quit seeing some people who were saying bad things about women I don't even want to meet them or see 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
I had a world. I don't think I had a career. I made films.
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 think we need to have a nest of something which is family.
Agnes Varda
