More quotes by Alejandro Jodorowsky
Movies have an enormous power to open the mind and the heart and everything. You are sitting and seeing something moving in front of you, and then your mind goes into a trance. You are completely there. It's a real great art it's not only a business. It's to open the mind, to understand this mystery within reality. This is why we need it.
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
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
One becomes wise only in measures, as he goes through his own insanity.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I was raping Frank Herbert, but with love.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
For art to be art it has to cure.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
I am not a commercial industry creator. I don't believe in making art to make money.
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
Movies have heart. Have mind. Have power. Have ambition.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
We all exist in our own personal reality of craziness.
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
Birds born in a cage think flying is an illness.
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
Five cats and a woman. That is all I need in life.
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 wife is 37 years younger than me. I don't feel the difference.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
You can't have a masterpiece without madness.
Alejandro Jodorowsky
If art is not a medicine for the society, it is a poison.
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
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
