It is only when I am doing my work that I feel truly alive.
Federico Fellini
Image
All art is autobiographical.
Federico Fellini
Image
Everyone knows that time is Death, that Death hides in clocks. Imposing another time powered by the Clock of the Imagination, however, can refuse his law. Here, freed of the Grim Reaper's scythe, we learn that pain is knowledge and all knowledge pain.
Federico Fellini
Image
Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real.
Federico Fellini
Image
There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the passion of life.
Federico Fellini

Federico Fellini
Image
You have to live spherically - in many directions. Never lose your childish enthusiasm - and things will come your way.
Federico Fellini
Image
You exist only in what you do.
Federico Fellini
Image
I don't believe in total freedom for the artist. Left on his own, free to do anything he likes, the artist ends up doing nothing at all. If there's one thing that's dangerous for an artist, it's precisely this question of total freedom, waiting for inspiration and all the rest of it.
Federico Fellini
Image
The visionary is the only realist.
Federico Fellini
Image
The beauty of life are women, no one loves them as much as me. I adore them all, the ugly, the beautiful, the cold, the sexy and especially those that are from cinema material, shadow and light.
