Maybe that's what these films are doing. They are my way of blessing the child
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Since I am a person who starts work without clear knowledge of a storyline, every single scene is a pivotal scene.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
My process is thinking, thinking and thinking - thinking about my stories for a long time.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Life is a winking light in the darkness.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Children understand intuitively that the world they have been born into is not a blessed world.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
When I start creating a villain, I start liking the villain and so the villain is not really evil.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Always believe in yourself. Do this and no matter where you are, you will have nothing to fear.

Image
Cut off a wolf's head and it still has the power to bite.

Is someone different at age 18 or 60? I believe one stays the same.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Its not a story in which the characters grow up, but a story in which they draw on something already inside them, brought out by the particular circumstances. I want my young friends to live like that, and I think they, too, have such a wish.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
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
Image
I don't like games. You're robbing the precious time of children to be children. They need to be in touch with the real world more.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
To have a film where there's an evil figure and a good person fights against the evil figure and everything becomes a happy ending, that's one way to make a film. But then that means you have to draw, as an animator, the evil figure. And it's not very pleasant to draw evil figures.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
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
Image
Well, yes. I believe that children's souls are the inheritors of historical memory from previous generations. It's just that as they grow older and experience the everyday world that memory sinks lower and lower. I feel I need to make a film that reaches down to that level. If I could do that I would die happy.

Humans have both the urge to create and destroy.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
There are all kinds of values within the films but I don't make message films.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Nobody has the right to sit in judgment and decide what's good or bad for you.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
It’s disgusting. On trains, the number of those people doing that strange masturbation-like gesture is multiplying.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
Virtual reality is a denial of reality. We need to be open to the powers of imagination, which brings something useful to reality. Virtual reality can imprison people.
