More quotes by Federico Fellini
There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the passion of life.
Federico Fellini

Federico Fellini

Federico Fellini

It is only when I am doing my work that I feel truly alive.
Federico Fellini
The visionary is the only realist.
Federico Fellini
You see me in my most virile moment when you see me doing what I do. When I am directing, a special energy comes upon me. ... It is only when I am doing my work that I feel truly alive. It is like having sex.
Federico Fellini
No matter what happens, always Keep your childhood innocence. It's the most important thing.
Federico Fellini
Money is everywhere but so is poetry. What we lack are the poets.
