More quotes by Hayao Miyazaki
Modern life is so thin and shallow and fake. I look forward to when developers go bankrupt, Japan gets poorer and wild grasses take over.
Hayao Miyazaki
You should despair and run away.
Hayao Miyazaki
Since I am a person who starts work without clear knowledge of a storyline, every single scene is a pivotal scene.
Hayao Miyazaki
I wish I was better at art. I love some of the great artists of the 19th century and, compared to them, I just feel I lack this technique that they had. They have so much skill.
Hayao Miyazaki
I create women characters by watching the female staff at my studio. Half the staff are women.
Hayao Miyazaki
I managed to work for more than 50 years with just paper, pencils and film. My son's generation and the one coming up after can't work with just paper and pencils any more. I managed to avoid using a computer. I don't even have a cellphone. I feel lucky I managed to live like that.
Hayao Miyazaki
When I start creating a villain, I start liking the villain and so the villain is not really evil.
Hayao Miyazaki
If you're going to retire, retire early.
Hayao Miyazaki
I am an animator. I feel like I'm the manager of a animation cinema factory. I am not an executive. I'm rather like a foreman, like the boss of a team of craftsmen. That is the spirit of how I work.
Hayao Miyazaki
Children understand intuitively that the world they have been born into is not a blessed world.
Hayao Miyazaki
Nobody has the right to sit in judgment and decide what's good or bad for you.
Hayao Miyazaki
I make films as a business, not as a cultural endeavor.
Hayao Miyazaki
I can't stand modern movies. The images are too weird and eccentric for me.
Hayao Miyazaki
Prizes do not mean anything to me. I think it is more important to make a child aware of the existence of a weird creature like a water spider that breathes through its backside.
Hayao Miyazaki
Animators can only draw from their own experiences of pain and shock and emotions.
Hayao Miyazaki
Cut off a wolf's head and it still has the power to bite.
Hayao Miyazaki
We each need to find our own inspiration. Sometimes it is not easy.
Hayao Miyazaki
Many of my movies have strong female leads - brave, self-sufficient girls that don't think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They'll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a savior. Any woman is just as capable of being a hero as any man.
Hayao Miyazaki
I think talent decides everything. More than the method, what's important is the talent using it. There's nothing inherently wrong or right about a method, whether it be pencil drawings or 3-D CG. Pencil drawings don't have to go away, but those who continue to use the medium lack talent. So sadly, it will fade away.
Hayao Miyazaki
The characters are born from repetition, from repeatedly thinking about them. I have their outline in my head. I become the character and as the character I visit the locations of the story many, many times. Only after that I start drawing the character, but again I do it many, many times, over and over. And I only finish just before the deadline.
Hayao Miyazaki
