More quotes by Jim Jarmusch
A lot of innovation in language comes from poetry.
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.

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.

[Kenneth Koch] taught children in public schools in New York City to write poems and told them down worry about rhyming, don't worry about any of that stuff.

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
The New York School poets are my godfathers creatively.
Jim Jarmusch
Film relates to almost every other form of expression, but poetry is a bit abstract in its strength and sometimes even the white spaces on the page are evocative almost as much as where the text is. Certain poets have played with that.

Before she married my father, my mother was a film reviewer for The Akron Beacon Journal - a small newspaper.
Jim Jarmusch
I'm not overly analytical, and I don't set out to make something particularly.
Jim Jarmusch
I prefer to be subcultural rather than mass-cultural. I'm not interested in hitting the vein of the mainstream.
Jim Jarmusch
Baseball is one of the most beautiful games. It is. It is a very Zen-like game.

I think you can only be nostalgic for something you've lost.

Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination.

For me, the music is always like the small rowboat I get into at the very beginning of my process.
Jim Jarmusch
I've always loved films, always. I studied literature and I went to Columbia in New York and I went to Paris for part of one year and ended up staying there.

In the words of the ancients, one should make his decision within the space of seven breaths. It is a matter of being determined and having the spirit to break through to the other side.
