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.

An original artist is unable to copy. So he has only to copy in order to be original.

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.

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.
