Krzysztof Kieślowski
“I sensed a mutual indifference behind polite smiles and had the overwhelming impression that, more and more frequently, I was watching people who didn't really know why they were living.”
Krzysztof Kieślowski, Kieslowski on Kieslowski

Eve Babitz
“Culturally, L.A. has always been a humid jungle alive with seething L.A. projects that I guess people from other places just can't see. It takes a certain kind of innocence to like L.A., anyway. It requires a certain plain happiness inside to be happy in L.A., to choose it and be happy here. When people are not happy, they fight against L.A. and say it's a 'wasteland' and other helpful descriptions.”
Eve Babitz, Eve's Hollywood

Raymond Carver
“And what did you want? To call myself beloved, to feel myself beloved on the earth.”
Raymond Carver

John Fante
“You are nobody, and I might have been somebody, and the road to each of us is love.”
John Fante, Ask the Dust

John Cassavetes
“I’ve never seen an exploding helicopter. I’ve never seen anybody go and blow somebody’s head off. So why should I make films about them? But I have seen people destroy themselves in the smallest way, I’ve seen people withdraw, I’ve seen people hide behind political ideas, behind dope, behind the sexual revolution, behind fascism, behind hypocrisy, and I’ve myself done all these things. So I can understand them. What we are saying is so gentle. It’s gentleness. We have problems, terrible problems, but our problems are human problems.”
John Cassavetes
