A man doesn't cry. In my life, I've never cried. I cannot do it. I am a man. How will I cry?
From Alejandro Jodorowsky
If you are great, 'El Topo' is a great picture. If you are limited, 'El Topo' is limited.
I didn't want to make cinema so a person forgets himself and has a lot of fun. 'I forget myself, I am a little poor consumer.' I wanted to make a picture where someone who sees it say, 'This is me! This is me!'
I am old, but I feel very beautiful.
I like Hollywood movies. I like them like I like to eat scrambled eggs; I like them for fun.
When I'm tired, I see industrial pictures. But I'll see one every two months. If I see one every day, I'll become an idiot.
All the pictures I could never do, I'll do it in comics. All the comics I do are the pictures I could never do.
I don't believe in failing. I have dignity.
Today a picture has value if it makes a lot of money. Myself, I declare I want to make a picture to lose money. Really! I want to lose money.
I always think that art is a form of sacrifice.
