Federico Fellini
I claim the right to contradict myself. I don't want to deprive myself of the right to talk nonsense, and I ask humbly to be allowed to be wrong sometimes.
Federico Fellini
A created thing is never invented and it is never true: it is always and ever itself.
Federico Fellini
Even if I set out to make a film about a fillet of sole, it would be about me.
Federico Fellini
Going to the cinema is like returning to the womb you sit there, still and meditative in the darkness, waiting for life to appear on the screen.
Federico Fellini
A different language is a different vision of life.
Federico Fellini
