Jean-luc Godard/2000 - Present

Famous quotes containing the words jean-luc godard, godard and/or present:

    The cinema is not an art which films life: the cinema is something between art and life. Unlike painting and literature, the cinema both gives to life and takes from it, and I try to render this concept in my films. Literature and painting both exist as art from the very start; the cinema doesn’t.
    Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)

    The truth is that there is no terror untempered by some great moral idea.
    —Jean-Luc Godard (b. 1930)

    To complain of the age we live in, to murmur at the present possessors of power, to lament the past, to conceive extravagant hopes of the future, are the common dispositions of the greatest part of mankind.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
