I don't really know what is shocking. When you tell the story of a man who is beheaded, you have to show how they cut off his head. If you don't, it's like telling a dirty joke and leaving out the punch line.

In Paris, one is always reminded of being a foreigner. If you park your car wrong, it is not the fact that it's on the sidewalk that matters, but the fact that you speak with an accent.

I don't know anyone who is not using drugs for the reason that they're illegal.

If I had killed somebody, it wouldn't have had so much appeal to the press, you see? But f-ing, you see, and the young girls. Judges want to f- young girls. Juries want to f- young girls. Everyone wants to f- young girls!

I never made a film which fully satisfied me.
Roman Polanski

To the audience it doesn't really matter how much the director struggled with an actor. It's the result that counts.

Normal love isn't interesting. I assure you that it's incredibly boring.

When I really love a movie, I don't want to spoil it by too frequent visits. But I like to come back to certain films, which I admire.
