More quotes by Ingmar Bergman
When we experience a film, we consciously prime ourselves for illusion. Putting aside will and intellect, we make way for it in our imagination. The sequence of pictures plays directly on our feelings.
Ingmar Bergman
The individualists stare into each other's eyes and yet deny the existence of each other.
Ingmar Bergman
I am conscious about myself and everything, and then suddenly, or slowly, my conscious fades out. Switches off. And it's not existing, and that's a marvelous feeling. That from existing, I am not existing. And at that moment, nothing can happen to me.
Ingmar Bergman
I want to stop. I want to stay on Fårö, and read the books I haven’t read, find out things I haven’t yet found out. I want to write things I haven’t written. To listen to music, and talk to my neighbors. To live together with my wife a very calm, very secure, very lazy existence, for the rest of my life.
Ingmar Bergman
I am very much aware of my own double self... The well-known one is very under control everything is planned and very secure. The unknown one can be very unpleasant. I think this side is responsible for all the creative work - he is in touch with the child.
Ingmar Bergman
Only someone who is well prepared has the opportunity to improvise.
Ingmar Bergman
We make each other alive it doesn’t make a difference if it hurts.
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
I am living permanently in my dream, from which I make brief forays into reality.
Ingmar Bergman
To shoot a film is to organize an entire universe.
Ingmar Bergman
I think I have made just one picture that I really like.
Ingmar Bergman
First, I write down all I know about the story, at length and in detail. Then I sink the iceberg and let some of it float up just a little.
Ingmar Bergman
Here, in my solitude, I have the feeling that I contain too much humanity.
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
I'm planning, you see, to try to confine myself to the truth. That's hard for an old, inveterate fantasy martyr and liar who has never hesitated to give truth the form he felt the occasion demanded.
Ingmar Bergman
To feel. To trust the feeling. I long for that
Ingmar Bergman
Death: Do you never stop questioning? Antonius Block: No. I never stop.
Ingmar Bergman
I have always had the ability to attach my demons to my chariot.
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
I feel very strongly that I’m surrounded by other realities.
Ingmar Bergman
