“I'm not interested in easy, safe emotions, or in ambitious characters who know what they are doing in a film...mostly because I don't know what I'm doing when I make a film.”

Trinh T. Minh-ha

“Speaking, writing, and discoursing are not mere acts of communication; they are above all acts of compulsion. Please follow me. Trust me, for deep feeling and understanding require total committment.”

Lionel Rogosin

“To be a filmmaker you have to have the patience of a monk and the passion of a tiger and be prepared to be paid last.”

Peter Hutton

“Practice, practice, practice and the camera becomes your eye and not so much this complicated technological thing to mediate to get an image.”

“I have a very simple definition of an artist. The artist is someone who pays attention and reports back.”

Wang Bing

“Every film is a hard and painful process, and very tiring and difficult. And even when it’s finished, I never really feel, “This is great, I’m happy and satisfied.” With "West of the Tracks", I never felt great satisfaction when I was done. The hard truth is that for me it’s very hard to actually get a feeling of relief and satisfaction from completing a film.”

Louis Lumière

“The cinema is an invention without a future.”

Auguste Lumière

“My invention, (the motion picture camera), can be exploited… as a scientific curiosity, but apart from that it has no commercial value whatsoever.”
