Roy Andersson's quotes
- I'm trying to show we have to care for the little we have left. I want to show the vulnerability, and the weakness we carry.
- [on his mission as an artist] ...the small human being... (who) symbolises all of us. I'm trying to show what it's like to be human and to be alive.
- [on his passion for making films] There are some subjects that I'm dealing with all the time. The vulnerability of the human being. Humiliation, when people humiliate each other and when they humiliate themselves.
- I was going to be an author, but I saw so many good movies.
