George W.Bush can go and kill thousands of Iraqis every day. By making people believe they are the enemy, and not human beings any more. If evil has an address, a nationality, you can exterminate all of them. This is fascism.

More quotes by Marjane Satrapi
'The Jungle Book.' It's one of the best animated films ever. I saw it when I was small at a cinema in Tehran.
Marjane Satrapi
People, they think that animation is a style. Animation is just a technique. It's like, people, they think that comics is a style, like comics is a superhero story. Comic is just a narration, and is a medium, you can say any kind of story in comics and you can say of any kind of story in animation.
Marjane Satrapi
Fear has always been the driving force behind all dictators' repression.
Marjane Satrapi
A cat can never be well-trained because they're too independent.
Marjane Satrapi

Marjane Satrapi
I am very bad at computers. I don't really know how to write email.
Marjane Satrapi
I never wanted to make a graphic novel. As soon as you become a 'writer,' you have to be intelligent all the time... I like the fact that I have the right once in a while to say silly things.
Marjane Satrapi
You cannot be completely nice. It's impossible. Who is it? Who is the perfect guy? Show him to me! It doesn't exist. And thank god.
Marjane Satrapi
The movie business is not about the money. Of course, you need money to make the movie. If you have a small budget, adapt yourself. Having $200 million dollars doesn't ensure that you're definitely going to make a good movie. There's so many examples that prove that.
Marjane Satrapi
To speak behind others' backs is the ventilator of the heart.
Marjane Satrapi
I had learned that you should always shout louder than your aggressor.
Marjane Satrapi
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.
Marjane Satrapi
That's the story of life - when you start enjoying people, it's always too late.
Marjane Satrapi
A well-trained cat doesn't exist because a cat remains a cat.
Marjane Satrapi
It's fear that makes us lose our conscience. It's also what transforms us into cowards.
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
Maybe the biggest problem is that there's no empathy. Nobody puts themselves in the place of others. Everyone thinks they are the only one to suffer. Or that they're the only ones who like ice cream or take their kids on vacation.
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
You know, they say in France that translation is like a woman: she is either beautiful or faithful.
