I am absolutely not a feminist, I am against stupidity, and if it comes from males or females, it doesn't change anything. If it means that women and men, they are equal, then OK, certainly I am a feminist.

More quotes by Marjane Satrapi
It's fear that makes us lose our conscience. It's also what transforms us into cowards.
Marjane Satrapi
I don't think of myself as a rebel I just say what I think.
Marjane Satrapi
A well-trained cat doesn't exist because a cat remains a cat.
Marjane Satrapi
I don't believe in the clash of cultures. The culture is one. The culture is a ring off the same chain. Picasso was very much influenced by the African arts, and he influenced a whole other generation of artists. So everything influences everything.
Marjane Satrapi
I don't like 'graphic novel.' It's a word that publishers created for the bourgeois to read comics without feeling bad. Comics is just a way of narrating - it's just a media type.
Marjane Satrapi
Culture and education are the lethal weapons against all kinds of fundamentalism.
Marjane Satrapi
I respect humanity. That's my religion. I can't stand these religions that are really businesses. So much money everywhere that's going to buy a really nice house in heaven - or what? I don't get it.
Marjane Satrapi
Fear has always been the driving force behind all dictators' repression.
Marjane Satrapi
The way that you remember your life, it's never linear. You have flashes of different moments of your life, and the flashes aren't equal they have different styles.
Marjane Satrapi
You draw the character from all angles - side, profile, back, etc. so the animator has this character in all the ways it looks like.
Marjane Satrapi
The best thing I ever did in my life was to ask, 'Do I like everybody?' And the answer was, 'No.' So why should everybody like me? If people are against me, so what? I'm against them too.
Marjane Satrapi
The most exciting time is when I think of an idea and how I imagine I can make it. It would be wonderful if there was a projector inside my eye that and it could just put the idea on the screen for people to see.
Marjane Satrapi
I really didn't know what to think about the veil. Deep down I was very religious but as a family we were very modern and avant-garde. I was born with religion. At the age of six I was already sure I was the last prophet. This was few years before the revolution.
Marjane Satrapi
People are so afraid to say the word comic. It makes you think of a grown man with pimples, a ponytail and a big belly. Change it to graphic novel and that disappears.
Marjane Satrapi
America is a very special place. In this country, you have the best and the worst at the same time. Whatever you can imagine.
Marjane Satrapi
I realized that I was more of a sprinter than a marathon man. With a long, long project, I get bored easily.
Marjane Satrapi
For me, who loves to draw and who loves to write and cannot choose between one or the other, the comic is the best form.
Marjane Satrapi
I'm not somebody that keeps the thing in her heart. I can get very angry for five minutes, but then it's finished. Once I've yelled, it's over.
Marjane Satrapi
I was a westerner in Iran, an Iranian in the West. I had no identity. I didn't even know anymore why I was living.
Marjane Satrapi
One can forgive but one should never forget.
