More quotes by Ingmar Bergman
I have always had the ability to attach my demons to my chariot.
Ingmar Bergman
I think I'm Swedish because I like to live here on this island. You can't imagine the loneliness and isolation in this country. In that way, I'm very Swedish - I don't dislike to be alone.
Ingmar Bergman
We worked on 'Fanny and Alexander' for seven months and it was an amusing production. Still, it was very long and heavy and so awfully complicated, .. And when the premiere was over and everything went well, I thought, 'That's that.' .
Ingmar Bergman
To feel. To trust the feeling. I long for that
Ingmar Bergman
Today we say all art is political. But I'd say all art has to do with ethics. Which after all really comes to the same thing. It's a matter of attitudes.
Ingmar Bergman
To humiliate and be humiliated, I think, is a crucial element in our whole social structure. It's not only the artist I'm sorry for. It's just that I know exactly where he feels most humiliated.
Ingmar Bergman
Self-portraiture is something one should never get involved in, since it is wrong to lie even though one endeavours to tell the truth.
Ingmar Bergman
For me, in those days, the great question was: Does God exist? Or doesn't God exist? Can we, by an attitude of faith, attain to a sense of community and a better world? Or, if God doesn't exist, what do we do then? What does our world look like then? In none of this was there the least political colour.
Ingmar Bergman
Death: Do you never stop questioning? Antonius Block: No. I never stop.
Ingmar Bergman
I am living permanently in my dream, from which I make brief forays into reality.
Ingmar Bergman
A film causes me so many worries and such a lot of reactions that I have to love it in order to get over it and past it.
Ingmar Bergman
This damned ranting about doom. Is that food for the minds of modern people? Do they really expect us to take them seriously?
Ingmar Bergman
One has to manage alone as best one can. (Karin Bergman)
Ingmar Bergman
My discovery of Tarkovsky's first film was like a miracle. Suddenly, I found myself standing at the door of a room the keys of which had, until then, never been given to me. It was a room I had always wanted to enter and where he was moving freely and fully at ease.
Ingmar Bergman
To shoot a film is to organize an entire universe.
Ingmar Bergman
Perhaps we are the same person. Perhaps we have no limits perhaps we flow into each other, stream through each other, boundlessly and magnificently. You bear terrible thoughts it is almost painful to be near you. At the same time it is enticing. Do you know why?
Ingmar Bergman
I know, of course, that by using film we can bring in other previously unknown worlds, realities beyond reality.
Ingmar Bergman
Art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord and now lives its own sterile life, generating and degenerating itself. In former days the artist remained unknown and his work was to the glory of God.
Ingmar Bergman
I think I have made just one picture that I really like.
Ingmar Bergman
People ask what are my intentions with my films - my aims. It is a difficult and dangerous question, and I usually give an evasive answer.
Ingmar Bergman
