I Would Give My Life For A

A Writer Or Painter Cannot Change The World. But They Can Keep An Essential Margin Of Nonconformity Alive.

The Bar... Is An Exercise In Solitude. Above All Else, It Must Be Quiet, Dark, Very Comfortable-and, Contrary To Modern Mores, No Music Of Any Kind, No Matter How Faint. In Sum, There Should Be No More Than A Dozen Tables, And A Client That Doesn't Like To Talk.

The Cinema Seems To Have Been Invented To Express The Life Of The Subconscious, The Roots Of Which Penetrate Poetry So Deeply

Nothing Would Disgust Me More, Morally, Than Receiving An Oscar.

I Find It [science] Analytical, Pretentious And Superficial-largely Because It Does Not Address Itself To Dreams, Chance, Laughter, Feelings, Or Paradox-in Other Words,-all The Things I Love The Most.
