Americans have no past, so they buy the pasts of others.
Jean-Luc Godard
The average income in France is $1,000 a month, and you can't live decently on that.
Jean-Luc Godard
Europe has memories, America has t-shirts.
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
There is no point in having sharp images when you've fuzzy ideas.
Jean-Luc Godard
I learned from Rossellini that you are rich even if you have a little money.
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
Because my movies are not successful, they are not shown. So I make a living from the budget.
Jean-Luc Godard
Photography could have been invented in color. Colors existed.
Jean-Luc Godard
If direction is a look, montage is a heartbeat. To foresee is the characteristic of both but what one seeks to foresee in space, the other seeks in time.
Jean-Luc Godard
American pictures usually have no subject, only a story. A pretty woman is not a subject. Julia Roberts doing this and that is not a subject.
Jean-Luc Godard
Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion.
Jean-Luc Godard
When you go to the cinema you look up, when you watch television you look down.
Jean-Luc Godard
Photography is truth...and cinema is truth 24 times a second.
Jean-Luc Godard
To be only spectacular should be 5 or 10 percent of cinema.
Jean-Luc Godard
Action can make you laugh. But just because you are glad. Even if there is no meaning.
Jean-Luc Godard
If we think today the way TV is ordering us to think, we think of Einstein as someone modern. Stravinsky is modern music, but it came at the time of Birth of a Nation, which is an old movie.
Jean-Luc Godard
In the beginning there was not even talking. In movies, there was no need for that. Because it was more evident if there was no talking. Only in sports does there remain this fervor, which can even become violent. There's this desire to see something big.
Jean-Luc Godard
I'm very interested in tennis, but when I try to tell younger players about [Bill] Tilden, they're not interested.
Jean-Luc Godard
We are losing our own capacity because we are poisoned in one way or another.
Jean-Luc Godard
