More quotes by Wim Wenders
The most important question for me when I begin working on a film is where to start. For a book, what makes you convinced there is a story that is worthwhile?
Wim Wenders
It's a great lesson in modesty that you realize you're illiterate in a field that you think you're an expert in.
Wim Wenders
My advice is, don't spend money on therapy. Spend it in a record store.
Wim Wenders
Sex and violence was never really my cup of tea I was always more into sax and violins.
Wim Wenders
Photographs put time into such a perspective. They humble us and our selfish memories.
Wim Wenders
Butte was once a grand city. To me, that city is like one big stage for Edward Hopper. You could put your camera anywhere, and you felt you were looking at his paintings.
Wim Wenders
For us music is mainly part of the entertainment world and is often a luxury.
Wim Wenders
In fact, it is amazing how much European films - Italian, French, German and English - have recovered a certain territory of the audience in their countries over the last few years.
Wim Wenders
Final cut is overrated. Only fools keep insisting on always having the final word. The wise swallow their pride in order to get to the best possible cut.
Wim Wenders
An image that is unseen can't sell anything. It is pure, therefore true, beautiful, in one word: innocent. As long as no eye contaminates it, it is in perfect unison with the world. If it is not seen, the image and the object it represents belong together.
Wim Wenders
I think sometimes you have to just imagine something that looks pretty impossible. By imagining something that is impossible, automatically you wish you could make it possible.
Wim Wenders
Filmmakers tell actors to adjust their body language, and the famous presence of the actor is his or her body language. That is what makes them special and a movie star. An actor's capital is his body.
Wim Wenders
If you travel a lot, if you like roaming about in order to lose yourself, you can end up in the strangest places. I think it must be a kind of built-in radar, which often takes me to places that are either peculiarly quiet or peculiar in a quiet sort of way.
Wim Wenders
Of course the French are making very credible movies and it is still one of the greatest nations in terms of world cinema but the real problem is the decay in film criticism.
Wim Wenders
I heard that Trump said even smelling a book makes him feel tired.
Wim Wenders
In the late 1980s the amount of German films was down to four or five percent of the market, and the remaining 95 percent were American. It is now 20 to 30 percent German productions.
Wim Wenders
Take opera for example - to go to the opera you have to dress up in a tuxedo and pay lots of money.
Wim Wenders
The last adventure left on this planet is creativity because we've been everywhere. There's not much left to explore. But there's a lot of exploration left in the human imagination.
Wim Wenders
I remember that even my first impression of Italian cinema was pictures by paparazzi because my mom was reading all of these trash magazines with paparazzo pictures.
Wim Wenders
The reason I never wrote a novel is that I don't have what it takes to write characters, so they would all be talking differently. I lack that ability. If I were writing, they would all talk like me, and that's no good.
Wim Wenders
