I'm just a storyteller, and the cinema happens to be my medium. I like it because it recreates life in movement, enlarges it, enhances it, distills it. For me, it's far closer to the miraculous creation of life than, say, a painting or music or even literature. It's not just an art form; it's actually a new form of life, with its own rhythms, cadences, perspectives and transparencies. It's my way of telling a story.
~ Federico Fellini
At any given moment I think a plant is about to be born in some corner of me. Aware of something strange going on, I begin to watch for it, sensing that it may have artistic promise. I would be happy if the idea weren't a complete loss. But I can only watch and wait, indefinitely. I don't know how to nurture the plant or make it bloom. All I have is the feeling or hope that it will grow leaves of poetry or of something that could become poetry when seen by certain eyes.

What do you want? What do you know about it? What are you talking about? Everything belongs to Him, just as I do. But I, I love Him. I worship Him, I serve Him.

Alfonso Reyes said that one published what he had written in order to avoid spending his life correcting it: one publishes a book in order to leave it behind, one publishes a book in order to forget it.
~ Fernando Sorrentino
Que ser tan malo este hippie que se decía Hijo de Dios! ¿Y por qué entonces no respetaba la obra de su padre? ¿O es que las serpientes, los zorros y los cerdos nacieron por generación espontanea a lo Lamarck? ¿No los hizo pues su papá el quinto día de la creación? Lo que pasa es que el hippie de Galilea ni tuvo padre como decía, sino madre: la puta leyenda que lo parió.

~ Fernando Vallejo

We want to share our work so that future generations can cook and create a more efficient, easy and unquestionable quality.
~ Ferran Adria
I got a lot of problems, but I'm really good at intuiting what I need to do to be happy with whatever I create. I know when to stop myself, I know when to start, I know when to leave something alone. I guess I just kind of indulge that completely, and so I just take my time.
