More quotes by Federico Fellini
No matter what happens, always Keep your childhood innocence. It's the most important thing.
Federico Fellini
Our duty as storytellers is to bring people to the station. There each person will choose his or her own train...But we must at least take them to the station...to a point of departure.
Federico Fellini
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
It's easier to be faithful to a restaurant than it is to a woman.
Federico Fellini
Regrets are a waste of time. They're the past crippling you in the present.
Federico Fellini
Money is everywhere but so is poetry. What we lack are the poets.
Federico Fellini
It is only when I am doing my work that I feel truly alive.
Federico Fellini
Censorship is advertising paid by the government.
Federico Fellini
Reality! But what does this word mean? Each has his own reality. I draw upon my personal reality upon the dark side of myself, my unconscious.
Federico Fellini
I spent my life trying to cure myself of my education.
Federico Fellini
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.
Federico Fellini
Freedom, especially a woman's freedom, is a conquest to be made, not a gift to be received. It isn't granted. It must be taken.
Federico Fellini
God may not play dice but he enjoys a good round of Trivial Pursuit every now and again.
Federico Fellini
Realism is a bad word. In a sense everything is realistic. I see no line between the imaginary and the real.
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
All art is autobiographical.
Federico Fellini
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
Don't tell me what I'm doing I don't want to know.
Federico Fellini
You exist only in what you do.
Federico Fellini
Nothing is more honest than a dream.
Federico Fellini
