Robert Bresson quotes
An old thing becomes new if you detach it from what usually surrounds it.
Cinema, radio, television, magazines are a school of inattention: people look without seeing, listen in without hearing.

The true is inimitable, the false untransformable.
When you do not know what you are doing and what you are doing is the best - that is inspiration.
