Text Quotes
I’ve been around some very famous people, but no one has the effect Maradona has; people tremble in his presence.  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) Every time I’m shooting a movie I want to kill myself. Because I don’t see the light in the end of the tunnel.  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I’ve reached the 50th year of my life, and now every question related with life also includes thinking about death. When I leave, I want to leave to my offspring a clear idea about identity.  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I am a living illustration of Bosnian mixing and converting. My grandparents lived in eastern Herzegovina. Very poor. The Turks came and brought Islam. There were three brothers in the family. One was Orthodox Christian. The other two took Islam to survive.  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I’m fed up with democracy. In a democracy, people vote for the mayors. I wanted to build a city where I will choose the citizens.  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) Yugoslavia was a kind of superpower. Great movies. Beautiful novels. Great rock-and-roll. We became a superpower in basketball. The problem is that people needed to identify more strongly with it after Tito and his awful, tricky way of leading the country  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I am finished with cities. I spent four years in New York, ten in Paris, and I was in Belgrade for a while. To me now they are just airports  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) What you have now is a Hollywood that is pure poison. Hollywood was a central place in the history of art in the 20th century: it was human idealism preserved. And then, like any great place, it collapsed, and it collapsed into the most awful machinery in the world  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) That is a Medieval way of drawing history, in which they do not respect the law and want the rest of the world to respect the law. That’s not possible  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I’ve been around some very famous people, but no one has the effect Maradona has; people tremble in his presence  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I put my ideas into practice. That may be the reason people hate me  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) The most difficult part of making movies is to keep making them. Maybe, you could make the biggest hit in the world, but then the big problem is what to do next and how to maintain devoted to a certain instinct that I have about films  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) My purpose is to make a movie to make you warm. To give you some heat. Now, this rational world has become a place where only what is cool is good. Do you cut the movie on the basis of the beat of modernity or the basis of the beat of your own heart?  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) The advantage of the gypsy language, even though I don’t understand it that much, the language is perfect melody. So if you propose the movie the way I do, then the language is just one part of the melody. Orchestrating all inside, and the language is following the meaning of what they say, and it’s never the same as written  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) Every movie that I do, if you analyze the stories, you can notice that in each story, that within the movie after the first 15 minutes, it could fall apart. Or every 10 minutes it has the chance that you lose the thread. On the other hand, if you succeed in putting them together, then the movie looks spontaneous and more like cinema  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I’m fed up with democracy. In a democracy, people vote for the mayors. I wanted to build a city where I will choose the citizens  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I’ve reached the 50th year of my life, and now every question related with life also includes thinking about death.

Because you are always the one who stands at the center of the universe when making movies  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) I was a big fighter when I was younger. In bars I was ready to explode and fight  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) Just because I believe in the identity and integrity of my country doesn’t make a xenophobe or a nationalist  (Emir Kusturica Quotes) Every time I’m shooting a movie I want to kill myself. Because I don’t see the light in the end of the tunnel  (Emir Kusturica Quotes)
