Our minds can shape the way a thing will be because we act according to our expectations.
Federico Fellini
Image
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
Image
I always direct the same film. I can't distinguish one from the other.
Federico Fellini
Image
The picture is in your head, in your imagination, everything.
Federico Fellini

Even if I set out to make a film about a fillet of sole, it would be about me.
