Jean-Luc Godard

"Beauty is composed of an eternal, invariable element whose quantity is extremely difficult to determine, and a relative element which might be, either by turns or all at once, period, fashion, moral, passion."

"I pity the French Cinema because it has no money. I pity the American Cinema because it has no ideas."

"Cinema is the most beautiful fraud in the world."

"A story should have a beginning, a middle and an end, but not necessarily in that order."

"I don't think you should feel about a film. You should feel about a woman, not a movie. You can't kiss a movie."

"Photography is truth. The cinema is truth twenty-four times per second."
