People who are poor, they suffer a lot. And people drink a lot and people take a lot of downers and there's a lot of unemployment.

More quotes by Gaspar Noe
The power that a president has in France is like the power of a king. In America, you know that his power is limited. Maybe because there used to be a king for centuries and now they're still behaving like they need a king.
Gaspar Noe
Vengeance is a human right.
Gaspar Noe
Sometimes I have better relationships with my barber then with people who are into cinema from an upper class.
Gaspar Noe
Some people take drugs in a quest for spirituality.
Gaspar Noe
I think it's more normal to make a movie dealing with love, sexual or not, than to make movies about bank robberies, which very rarely happen in real life. So I would say the problem is not what some people feel is normal, I would say the problem is why this whole industry is far more obsessed with filming scenes of dominance, guns, invasion.
Gaspar Noe
War, sometimes you have to go for it, you know?
Gaspar Noe
I think British people for example can handle better their own poorness. The image of their poorness. But in France, people don't handle it very well. Either you are normal or ... if you are poor you better not show it.
Gaspar Noe
On an everyday level, I use alcohol and drugs in general mostly to be in a happier mood, with the people around me.
Gaspar Noe
I wanted to do comic books... as a comic book artist, as an illustrator. But I'm not very good so I thought I should do something else! So I went to a film school when I was seventeen and came out when I was nineteen.
Gaspar Noe
You wake up because you killed someone and you're afraid of going to jail. And the moment you wake up you feel safe and it's over and you can meet that person in the street and you're not going to jail. The good thing about dreams is that they erase some kind of desire, because after your dreams you feel you've done it, and you're relieved.
Gaspar Noe
If you're a Bosnian and suddenly you get attacked by the Serbs, there's just one way of getting rid of your opponents. It's taking revenge and trying to fight as hard as you can.
Gaspar Noe
In England they need a king, in Spain they need a king, in France there is no more king. But they consider the president as if he was a king.
Gaspar Noe
I'm very much into vengeance, in the way that if someone attacks you, you have to attack him twice if you want to survive.
Gaspar Noe
I think that in the American film industry - or even in the European cinema - movies are made not to disturb any kind of class or any kind of minority.
Gaspar Noe
From a simple, mammal perspective, you think you're going to make friends through the movie. You think, Oh, this kind of humor that I play with will bring people that have a similar kind of humor. I'll make new friends, or something. You don't even think in terms of audience or of money.
Gaspar Noe
Erotic movies - they don't even make it anymore. Even the erotic magazines don't really look like the ones you could find in the '70s. You have much more extreme iconography of what is sexy. It's very cold. There's nothing that links to real life.
Gaspar Noe
I think there can be incestuous love.
Gaspar Noe
In most cases, I don't know how much, I cannot say if it's ninety nine percent or eighty percent, but the problem with incestuous relationships is that they often come from frustration. And from need of power.
Gaspar Noe
I always think of moments of love with someone I love.
Gaspar Noe
Most people feel aggressed by anything that is different from them.
Gaspar Noe
