Children understand intuitively that the world they have been born into is not a blessed world.

See with eyes unclouded by hate.

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.

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

Image
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.

I think 2-D animation disappeared from Disney because they made so many uninteresting films. They became very conservative in the way they created them. It's too bad. I thought 2-D and 3-D could coexist happily.

It’s disgusting. On trains, the number of those people doing that strange masturbation-like gesture is multiplying.

Airplanes are the most beautiful when they are in the air.

I believe that fantasy in the meaning of imagination is very important. We shouldn't stick too close to everyday reality but give room to the reality of the heart, of the mind, and of the imagination.

Is someone different at age 18 or 60? I believe one stays the same.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
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
Image
You should despair and run away.
Hayao Miyazaki
Image
In fact, I am a pessimist. But when I'm making a film, I don't want to transfer my pessimism onto children. I keep it at bay. I don't believe that adults should impose their vision of the world on children, children are very much capable of forming their own visions. There's no need to force our own visions onto them.

We each need to find our own inspiration. Sometimes it is not easy.

No matter how many weapons you have, no matter how great your technology might be, the world cannot live without love.

My process is thinking, thinking and thinking - thinking about my stories for a long time.
