    • Interview in Film Culture, no. 42 (1966), p. 101.
  • My independence, which is my strength, implies my loneliness, which is weakness.
    (Italian: La mia indipendenza, che è la mia forza, implica la solitudine, che è la mia debolezza.)
  • Nothing is more anarchic than power. Power does what it wants.
    (Italian: Nulla è più anarchico del potere, il potere fa praticamente ciò che vuole.)
  • Seriousness is the only quality of people who have no other ones.
    (Italian: La serietà è la qualità di coloro che non ne hanno altre.)
