Andrei Tarkovsky: An artist never works under ideal conditions. If they existed, his work wouldn't exist, for the artist doesn't live in a vacuum. Some sort of pressure must exist. The artist exists because the world is not perfect. Art would be useless if the world were perfect, as man wouldn't look for harmony but would simply live in it. Art is born out of an ill-designed world.

"Filmmaking to me is an investigation of what is in someone’s mind. I absolutely refuse to judge the characters in my films and it is imperative that the characters neither analyze themselves nor others during the course of the filming."
