Jean-Luc Godard Reality Quotations

the movie is not a thing which is taken by the camera; the movie is the reality of the movie moving from reality to the camera.

Sometime reality is too complex. Stories give it form.

If you want to make a documentary you should automatically go to the fiction, and if you want to nourish your fiction you have to come back to reality.

Sometimes reality is too complex for oral communication. But legend embodies it in a form which enables it to spread all over the world.

Art is not a reflection of reality, it is the reality of a reflection.

Why all these signs around us that make me doubt language and submerge me in meanings, drowning reality instead of extracting it from the imaginary?
