More quotes by Alejandro Jodorowsky
When you put a great amount of energy and hope in a big project, you can be destroyed if you don't do it. But myself, I say: To fail is only to see the way to fail.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I am an artist, you understand? For me, a picture is like poetry. When you make art, this is not coming from an intellectual place. It's coming from the deep side of your unconscious, your soul.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I wanted to make a film that gave the people who took LSD at that time the hallucinations that you get with that drug, but without hallucinating.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Every one of us is a perfect human being, deformed by the family, the society and the culture.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
People say I am mad. I am not mad. I am trying to heal my soul.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
What is an artistic picture? An artistic picture is very simple. The creator is not the producer. The creator is not the star. The creator is the director, the person who realizes the picture, like a poet, like an artist. The creator of the picture is free to do whatever he wants, how he wants to do it. That is an artistic picture.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I am like the rain, I go where I'm needed.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
My writing routine is everyday I put a record on, the same one since 20 years. Then I burn a stick of incense, I put perfume here on the insides of my soles, I paint my left testicle red, and I write.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I think the art of filmmaking is something you learn through actions, by doing it, not by learning theories. And as you do it, your mind starts to change.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
One becomes wise only in measures, as he goes through his own insanity.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Art gives to you a new conception of reality, opens your mind, opens your heart, opens your desire of action.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I don't live in France I live in myself.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
This is the thing: Art is more important than making a show, something that amuses people. Art is something that needs to give to the public, to the actors, to the artist - to give something that makes life the paradise it can be. Life can be a paradise. Still, I believe that. Even if there is Trump, there can be a paradise.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Every mind has another vision of reality. There is not a common reality. Every person thinks he is like the others, but every person is different, living in his own psychology.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Movies have heart. Have mind. Have power. Have ambition.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I don't see myself as a moviemaker only, you know? When I can do a picture, I do. But I don't work like a business, in pictures. I am not obliged to make one picture after the other in order to live.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Life is a way of perfection. You need to work on yourself. You become a good person. If you do your work you will discover sublime feelings.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
For art to be art it has to cure.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
One does not go to the theater to escape from himself, but to reestablish contact with the mystery that we all are.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Failure doesn't mean anything, it just means changing paths.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
