Jean Cocteau

The day of my birth, my death began its walk. It is walking toward me, without hurrying.

The reward of art is not fame or success but intoxication: that is why so many bad artists are unable to give it up.

The greatest masterpiece in literature is only a dictionary out of order.

Do not give in too much to feelings. A overly sensitive heart is an unhappy possession on this shaky earth.

It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.
