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.

More quotes by 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
Don't make your living with cinema because Hollywood will take you, will eat you, will destroy you. This is the reality. You have a good picture, have success, you take the person and they destroy you.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I am like the rain, I go where I'm needed.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I don't live in France I live in myself.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
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.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
You can't have a masterpiece without madness.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I never know if my picture is a good picture or a bad picture, because I'm not making pictures thinking of the public, I'm making pictures to realize myself.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
My wife is 37 years younger than me. I don't feel the difference.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
If the picture is not an artistic picture, it's show, like television. Television series are very funny, but it's a collective production. An industrial art. A car is not made by a person, it's made by a group of creators, only to go to the market to buy your cigarettes. That is a car - they are not a big art, they are a little art.
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
Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
My father was a monster. A monster! I cut with my family when I was 23 and I never see them again.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Words don't heal. Art heals!
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Every one of us is a perfect human being, deformed by the family, the society and the culture.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
When I was a young person I went to the university and I learned a rational language, to think with the left side of the brain. But in the right side of the brain you have intuition and imagination. Words are not the truth they indicate the way to go, but you need to go alone, in silence. Symbols have a language that kills the words.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
Art gives to you a new conception of reality, opens your mind, opens your heart, opens your desire of action.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
For many years, I did pantomime with Marcel Marceau. I was a writer for him and got to know very well how to use the body for illustration. I wanted to do a mother without arms, but using the arms of her son in Santa Sangre. The tragedy should always have something funny. Something weird.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I shoot in Mexico, but I can shoot in India, anywhere. I have no nationality myself. My nationality is the planet.
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
You are engaging in madness. I feel obliged to accompany you.
