Abbas Kiarostami

In the total darkness, poetry is still there, and it is there for you.

If you catch me coming out of a film, when I'm emotionally involved, I can tell you at that moment why I like it - but to talk about it years later is not logical to me.

I've often noticed that we are not able to look at what we have in front of us, unless it's inside a frame.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

It is hardly surprising that women concentrate on the way they look instead of what is in their minds since not much has been put in their minds to begin with.

I love Hindi films.
