More quotes by Jean-Luc Godard
I don't know if I am free because I am happy or happy because I am free.
Jean-Luc Godard
The average income in France is $1,000 a month, and you can't live decently on that.
Jean-Luc Godard
I write and film history I don't make it.
Jean-Luc Godard
Self-portraits have been done in painting, but never in music or literature. It has no meaning, it makes no sense. And in movies I was wondering if it could. And how.
Jean-Luc Godard
When you are out in the land, OK, you have the land but you are alone with it. And sometimes it is too much.
Jean-Luc Godard
Even with painting, even abstract paintings, you need the incoming of, light on the canvas.
Jean-Luc Godard
The invention of photography. For whom? Against whom?
Jean-Luc Godard
There are different kinds of painting, some with lights and some without, but still if you look at any painting here (in the light) and then over here (out of the light) it's an entirely different thing. The consciousness of this came to the Impressionists and I'm very interested in that.
Jean-Luc Godard
When we talked, I talked about me, you talked about you, when we should have talked about each other.
Jean-Luc Godard
I'm satisfied to have an ordinary success and an ordinary life and an ordinary income. Later, I don't know.
Jean-Luc Godard
Objects exist and if one pays more attention to them than to people, it is precisely because they exist more than the people. Dead objects are still alive. Living people are often already dead.
Jean-Luc Godard
Cinema is the most beautiful fraud in the world.
Jean-Luc Godard
People come to Cannes just to advertise their films, not with a particular message. But the advantage is that if you go to the festival, you get so much press coverage in three days that it advertises the film for the rest of the year.
Jean-Luc Godard
The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life.
Jean-Luc Godard
I don't think I've succeeded in making any really good films. There are moments, scenes, whole movements that sing. It has all added up to a cinema of sorts, even though I'm still learning my art.
Jean-Luc Godard
This new world which is being born is cynical and amnesiac. And it has eliminated perspective.
Jean-Luc Godard
I've decided that what interests me most is that you can only capture the light at a certain time. But after that, five minutes after that, then it's a different thing. So if you don't have the right aperture, you've missed it. Of course, you can correct it in the lab. But not really.
Jean-Luc Godard
I think I'm innocently representing a certain belief in motion pictures, and, well OK.
Jean-Luc Godard
Film is like a personal diary, a notebook or a monologue by someone who tries to justify himself before a camera.
Jean-Luc Godard
Cinema is not a series of abstract ideas, but rather the phrasing of moments.
Jean-Luc Godard
