«When you live with another person for 50 years, all of your memories are invested in that person, like a bank account of shared memories. It?s not that you refer to them constantly. In fact, for people who do not live in the past, you almost never say, ?Do you remember that night we...?? But you don?t have to. That is the best of all. You know that the other person does remember. Thus, the past is part of the present as long as the other person lives. It is better than any scrapbook, because you are both living scrapbooks.»
«If I'm a cruel satirist at least I'm not a hyprocrite: I never judge what other people do. Neither a politician nor a priest, I never censor what others do. Neither a philospher nor a psychiatrist, I never bother trying to analyze or resolve my fears and neuroses.»
«What is an artist? A provincial who finds himself somewhere between a physical reality and a metaphysical one.... It?s this in-between that I?m calling a province, this frontier country between the tangible world and the intangible one?which is really the realm of the artist.»
«I don't believe in total freedom for the artist. Left on his own, free to do anything he likes, the artist ends up doing nothing at all. If there's one thing that's dangerous for an artist, it's precisely this question of total freedom, waiting for inspiration and the rest of it.»
