Failure doesn't mean anything, it just means changing paths.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
We all exist in our own personal reality of craziness.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
People say I am mad. I am not mad. I am trying to heal my soul.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Terrorists are not bad they are limited by circumstances. They are human beings. I am very, very, very sad when they explode themselves and kill 40 to 60 persons. It's terrible. But also, I am sad for them, a young person who lost his whole life. It's terrible. They are limited by religion, by politics, by economical interests.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Santa Sangre is the picture I love the best, myself, because El Topo and The Holy Mountain I made with my head, and Santa Sangre I made with my feelings, with my heart. It's an emotional picture. And it's more real for me, that picture.
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
When the bull's-eye becomes as big in your mind as an elephant, you are sure to hit it.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Every one of us is a perfect human being, deformed by the family, the society and the culture.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I believe in mysticism, with an interior goal, and you are your own temple and your own priest. I dont believe anymore in religions, because you see today there are religious wars, prejudice, false morals, and the woman is despised. Religion is too old now its from another century, its not for today.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
You live in the image you have of the world. Every one of us lives in a different world, with different space and different time.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
My consciousness is without limits more than when I was 40 or 50.
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
Five cats and a woman. That is all I need in life.
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
In Chile they have no movies. They have awful popular movies. I am not a Latin American creator.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I want to liberate my imagination and my mind with every kind of movie. That is what I wanted to do all my life.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I don't see myself as a movie maker only. 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. I write books, I write for comic books, I give lectures... I live. And when the opportunity comes to do a picture, I do a picture.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Humanity are not individuals we are collective. And if we have difference, we have wars all the time. We have crisis. We need to open our mind. This is the only solution we have.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
If art is not a medicine for the society, it is a poison.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Birds born in cages think that flying is a disease.
