More quotes by Agnes Varda
I should say nothing! I'm through with it! I hate to repeat myself all the time.
Agnes Varda
I'd been educated stupidly, I knew nothing about nothing, that's part of being shy.
Agnes Varda
At that time, when I started, in the '50s, cinema was very classical in its aims.
Agnes Varda
I was a photographer first.I worked alone. I did it my way as much as I could. I have been sort of courageous about doing things, because I didn't think I should do less than my brothers.
Agnes Varda
I go back to many films that I really love. Some Bresson, some Godard of the early times, the Cassavetes of those years I love. And the early Wim Wenders. But my own films I don't watch, unless I need them.
Agnes Varda
The story of a couple is always very fragile, especially over more than thirty years. People know it's not easy, and even though you have strong feeling and desire and endless love, it doesn't always happen.
Agnes Varda
You are always in the world. Even in Vagabond. I am not on the road, I am not eating nothing. But in a way we all have a Mona. We all have inside ourselves a woman who walks alone on the road. In all women there is something in revolt that is not expressed.
Agnes Varda
Good cinema is good cinema. It makes you feel like you need to work. Just yesterday I saw a good film, but even if I'd seen a bad one, I'd feel, Oh my god, what a bad job, I can do better.
Agnes Varda
I never met Publo Picasso. I took pictures at the Festival d'Avignon, but I was too shy to ask to go in his studio. It does not look like me now, but I was very shy, and shy of men also. I think there was a world that frightened me totally.
Agnes Varda
I don't watch my own films. There is little time I'd rather see another film.
Agnes Varda
I wanted to speak strongly about feminism in my life, since it's been a struggle.
Agnes Varda
It's a way of living, sharing things with people who work with me, and they seem to enjoy it.
Agnes Varda
The freedom he gave himself to work and change shape and change ideas and work all the time with joy, the joy of painting was in [Publo] Picasso, which I found beautiful.
Agnes Varda
I'm trying to capture something more fragile than a regular story. I love what people bring me.
Agnes Varda
I think people should be different. I love people who don't go by the rule that you have to be careful because you're old, you have to do this and that, you have to eat this and that.
Agnes Varda
It's interesting work for me to tell my life, as a possibility for other people to relate it to themselves - not so much to learn about me.
Agnes Varda
There is a song of Gainsbourg that Jane Birkin sang, and the words are beautiful in French. It says, Le jeu et les moi. It's impossible to translate, because it has a very nice sound. It sounds so lovely in French. So I took that because it was the subject: I and myself and myself and I. Which is, in a way, boring, because it is a contradictio
Agnes Varda
Hands are the tool of the painter, the artist.
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 waited for each film to become important for me. If I had no ideas for a film, I didn't do a film. So I made not that many films for fifty-four years of working.
