I love silent films. The future is unwritten.
Jim Jarmusch
I'm very interested in variations.
Jim Jarmusch
I'm not interested in stories. Stories are interesting but I don't think my head works that way. I remember at age 10 I dreamt of making animated cartoons as loops, something you could just project on your wall and look at from time to time. Kind of, something to stare at, something that's always there.
Jim Jarmusch
If you make a film, that magic is not there, because you were there while shooting it. After writing a film and shooting it and being in the editing room every day, you can never see it clearly. I think other people's perception of your film is more valid than your own, because they have that ability to see it for the first time.
Jim Jarmusch
Domesticity is a fact of how social structure works. So if you say, Well being domestic as a female is a negative trait, then that would be like saying, Having a family - because that's an economic unit designed to further the economic structures in the world - if you have a family then you're subjugated.
Jim Jarmusch
I wanted to make an Indian character who wasn't either a) the savage that must be eliminated, the force of nature that's blocking the way for industrial progress, or b) the noble innocent that knows all and is another cliche. I wanted him to be a complicated human being.
Jim Jarmusch
[Kenneth Koch] taught us to be playful, to be very appreciative of other poets, to appreciate all forms of expression. He taught us to be experimental.
Jim Jarmusch
In Hollywood Westerns even in the Thirties and Forties, history was mythologized to accommodate some kind of moral code. And what really affects me deeply is when you see it taken to the extent where Native Americans become mythical people.
Jim Jarmusch
The beauty of life is in small details, not in big events.
Jim Jarmusch
Jim Jarmusch: Poets are always ahead of things in a certain way, their sense of language and their vision.
Jim Jarmusch
The beauty of a movie is that you walk in, you don't know anything about it, you enter a world that's new to you, and that's the magic of being transported.
Jim Jarmusch
I'm not putting down anyone that does look at their work in that way, but for me I am a hardcore amateur.
Jim Jarmusch
I know from the past, critics often say my films don't have any plot, that kind of thing. I'm used to being told, Yeah, it's slow and has no plot.
Jim Jarmusch
I hate those live action versions of animated cartoons. It ruins everything, the whole point of cartoons is to get away from photographs. I mean it would be stupid to say that cartoons are better than photographs but its true.
Jim Jarmusch
I started working with friends of mine and that, to some degree, continues.
Jim Jarmusch
When I left Ohio when I was 17 and ended up in New York and realised that not all films had the giant crab monsters in them, it really opened up a lot of things for me.
Jim Jarmusch
I'm like a navigator and I try to encourage our collaboration and find the best way that will produce fruit. I like fruit. I like cherries, I like bananas.
Jim Jarmusch
You are the accumulations of your experiences at any given point. And when you express something those things come out. The thing is I hate seeing my films when I'm done with them, so I don't look back as a chart of my life, but I leave it as a kind of chart. Though, it is a photograph, captured.
Jim Jarmusch
I thought The Limits of Control could be interpreted in two ways: as the limits of one's self-control and as the limits of allowing other people's control over one's - consciousness - which I kind of thought was a double meaning that was appropriate.
Jim Jarmusch
I'm not an analytical person, so it's not my job to even know what the hell the thing meant. It's not my problem. I'm just supposed to do it. Sometimes, people have explained things to me that I might have been semi-conscious of or not.
Jim Jarmusch
