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
Some people take drugs in a quest for spirituality.
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

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
Some girls tell me I'm a sex maniac, or people I don't know think that I'm a fascist, but I don't feel like one. I really think I'm not Communist either, because I don't belong to any political group.
Gaspar Noe
Horsemeat is the most male meat you can think of.
Gaspar Noe

Gaspar Noe
I always think of moments of love with someone I love.
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
I think there can be incestuous love.
Gaspar Noe
If I had to go through a tunnel ten years without making any movies like Bunuel, I don't mind, as long as I did one good movie.
Gaspar Noe
You feel touched by a movie in a good or bad way or you have a strong reaction to something that's totally artificial, to an imitation of life. But that imitation of life that you see on the screen can affect you almost as if it was real.
