I am not a normal person. I am living in a normal body, but my mind is not normal.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
In Chile they have no movies. They have awful popular movies. I am not a Latin American creator.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
Every person has a talent, but not the same one. Every person has to discover his personal talent and go with his talent. And then you are you, and what you do, you do because you love what you do, not because you want to be famous or because you're making money. You do the work because you love it.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
Have a dream. Fight to do a dream. Don't ask if it is possible to do something or if not possible. Try to do it!

Five cats and a woman. That is all I need in life.

Normality is to be different. Every person is a different person. And one day you need to be aware of your difference. Aware that you are not the same as the others. That is to be normal.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
Movies are movement. A comic-book is immobility. From one still picture to another, but no movement. You need to make the movement in your head. In the movies, you see the movement. It's different. What is the same is the mind of the creator.

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
Image
I shoot in Mexico, but I can shoot in India, anywhere. I have no nationality myself. My nationality is the planet.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
Let the inner god that is in each one of us speak. The temple is your body, and the priest is your heart: it is from here that every awareness must begin.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
Life is a mixing of all kind of things: comedy and tragedy going together.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Image
One day, someone showed me a glass of water that was half full. And he said, Is it half full or half empty? So I drank the water. No more problem.

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

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.
