More quotes by Marjane Satrapi
Culture and education are the lethal weapons against all kinds of fundamentalism.
Marjane Satrapi
Start [the movie] in color. Color is always attributed as fun, and black and white is very sad.
Marjane Satrapi
I don't watch many comic-book movies. But I loved 'Sin City.'
Marjane Satrapi
Today, we don't talk about history. The past is two weeks ago, and the future is two weeks after.
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
The world is not about Batman and Robin fighting the Joker things are more complicated than that. And nothing is scarier than the people who try to find easy answers to complicated questions.
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.

I loved Chiara Mastroianni voice, her talent, her generosity. We rehearsed for two months...She's a workaholic and perfectionist, like Vincent [Paronnaud] and myself.

I am very bad at computers. I don't really know how to write email.
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'm extremely unbearable. You know, I'm narcissistic and at the same time I'm very charming - I think.
Marjane Satrapi
I almost don't know how to write an email.
Marjane Satrapi
In a place like Israel, they're very concerned with Iran, so there's a lot of interest. So they want to see what this Iranian from France has to say in her comics. I guess that's good. My the books are coming out in other countries. And each time, they discover something different to be interested in.
Marjane Satrapi
Nothing's worse than saying goodbye. It's a little like dying.
Marjane Satrapi
A Muslim fanatic and a Christian fanatic, a Jewish fanatic, a secular fanatic, an atheist fanatic, a communist fanatic - all of them are the same. The thinking that, 'If you don't think like me, that if you are not with me, then you are against me' this is something to condemn.
Marjane Satrapi
If today I have to make a political statement, it is, 'I love beauty.' I think beauty makes people better.
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
If you know a little bit the psychology of human beings, you have to understand that if you say something you should not do, then everybody wants to do it.
Marjane Satrapi
The novels have done so well because the drawings are abstract, black-and-white. This adds to the universality of the story. Persepolis also has dreamlike moments, and the drawings help maintain cohesion and consistency.
Marjane Satrapi
It's always extremely interesting to speak at colleges. My books are taught in many colleges in America and are part of the educational system, so it's really important to me. I don't believe in so many things in life, but something I believe in is education.
