Going to the cinema is like returning to the womb; you sit there, still and meditative in the darkness, waiting for life to appear on the screen. – Federico Fellini
All art is autobiographical. The pearl is the oysters autobiography. – Federico Fellini
Money is everywhere but so is poetry. What we lack are the poets. – Federico Fellini
Experience is what you get while looking for something else. – Federico Fellini
The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life.

Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesnt. – Jean-Luc Godard
When we were growing up and saw a Ray Harryhausen movie, we were interested in how it was done. But thank God we got to go through the magic of seeing it before we knew how it was done. You were able to get this beautiful, pure, visceral response to something without knowing too much about it. – Tim Burton
