Akira Kurosawa

Movie directors, or should I say people who create things, are very greedy and they can never be satisfied... That's why they can keep on working. I've been able to work for so long because I think next time, I'll make something good.

The Japanese see self-assertion as immoral and self- sacrifice as the sensible course to take in life.

In a mad world, only the mad are sane.

Man is a genius when he is dreaming.
